  • The exemption limit for leave encashment under Section 10(10AA) of the Income Tax Act is now ₹25,00,000 at retirement for non-government employees.

  • Amounts exceeding this cap are taxable as salary income in the year of retirement.

  • The ₹3 lakh limit was applicable prior to April 2023 and only applies to employees who retired before April 1, 2023. (AY 2023-24)

  • The ₹25 lakh exemption limit is applicable, for LIC employees retiring in AY 2024–25.
  • This increase was announced in Budget 2023 and formally notified by the Central Board of Direct Taxes through Notification No. 31/2023.
