30 March 2012 Hi Vijay,

Transport allowance is allowed by govt. @800p.m. irrespective of what are you spending for transportation.

Therefore no further allowance in regard to Vehicle Expenses will be allowed.

You can do Tax Planning by treating vehicle running as your business and receive Vehicle Running Rent from Co.
