17 May 2017 Sir some of the CA are in the view that any fixed allowance is taxable except the trasport allowance. however the allowance is exempt to the extent of actual expenditure in the nature of reimbursement. therefore the proof of expenditure is mandate. else the allowance shall be taxable,

Pls give your views....

17 May 2017 Getting proof of expenditure for washing is not possible, hence reasonable amount is paid which is exempted. This is the practice followed in my company.

17 May 2017 Ok sir... also clarify is it mandatory to wear the specific uniform during the official time to claim washing allowance exemption,

or we can even claim the washing allowance exemption to the extent of Rs. 1000 PM without wearing uniform during the working hour?

17 May 2017 It is not mandatory to wear you can claim exemption.
