In India, under the new tax regime effective from Assessment year 2021-22, allowances like Internet allowances and fuel allowances can be claimed as deductions if they are part of your salary and meet specific conditions under the INcome Tax Act. 

For claiming deductions for allowances in the Income Tax Return(ITR):

Allowances like Internet and fuel are typically considered part of taxable income if received by an employee. 

The new regime has limited deductions compared to the old regime. Most allowances are taxable, and deductions for allowances are generally not availale under the new regime unless specified under specific sections of the Income Tax Act. 

In the ITR form, allowances are usually reported under " Income from Salary". Specific deductions, if allowable, would be claimed based on the sections applicable. 

Please share specific conditions for taking allowance deduction
