Hi,

I have recd Rs 22181.82 as leave encashment (Earned leave) for FY10-11. as per company rules any leaves in excess of a limit get encashed automatically at end of FY. In form 16 issued by employer its shown taxable but somewhere I read its non taxable, can you please clarify Urgently as i am abut to fill ITR 1 and not sure to deduct it under section10 or someother section , pl mention the rule, section.

leave encashment received during job is 100% taxable...no exemption is available !!

Is this received at retirment(Exempt subject to conditions)? or during the job(Taxable).

During the job.

Then its fully taxable..............
