Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the income tax exemption available for the commutation part of a pension. Section 10(10A) of the Income Tax Act provides specific exemptions. For government employees, the entire commuted pension is exempt. Non-government employees may receive exemptions of either one-third or one-half of the commuted pension, depending on whether they also receive gratuity.
PLS refer section 10(10A) if you are government employee, the whole commuted pension is exempt if you are non government employee and you are in receipt of gratuity, 1/3 of commuted pension is exempted if you are not in receipt of gratuity, 1/2 of commuted pension is exempt
