Leave encahsment at the time of retirement is exempt for Public sector Units/ Nationalised Bank

Leave encashment is fully exempt only for employees of Central and State Government (If received after retirement or superannuation). For the purpose of income tax, PSU/nationalized bank is not considered as government employer. Accordingly, retired employees of public sector undertakings and nationalised banks cannot be treated as government employees. They are not entitled to get full tax exemption on leave encashment after retirement or superannuation under section 10(10AA). Exemption available to them up to limit and as per criteria prescribed for non government employee.
