My employer takes the tax savings proofs for a financial year by January 15th.

Since LTC cash voucher scheme accepts the tax proofs till March 31st , how can i claim the benefits for the bills generated between January 15 to March 31? Can these be claimed in ITR directly?

I have read on various platform that the LTA/LTC claims can only be claimed via employer.

Please help

Quick Summary

This discussion explores how individuals can claim benefits under the LTC cash voucher scheme for expenses incurred between their employer's proof submission deadline (January 15th) and the scheme's cut-off date (March 31st). The core question is whether these claims can be made directly in the Income Tax Return (ITR) or if they must be processed through the employer.
