Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether free electricity provided by the government is considered taxable income. It questions if such benefits are exempt and under which specific legal sections. The consensus leans towards these subsidies not being treated as taxable income, drawing parallels with other government subsidies like discounted travel and food.

It is exempt under a seperate section.
Can you please mention that section too

Thanks
That section is applicable in case of industry in special economic zone.
Please pls mention that separate section Mr Sabyasachi Mukherjee...
