Hi Hitesh,

It is Chargeable Under Head Income From Other Sources as defn of salary does not cover income from apprentice.

ok then can we say  for any student getting nominal stipend we can claim exemption u/s 10 (16) 

Whether Stiphend include conveyance also?

Ya stipend is surely exempted for a article getting from his ca principal,as these stipend is mainly paid to meet his books and coaching fees, and it has also been wriiten in section 10(16).

Stipend is taxable under "Income from Salaries" as Sec. 17(1) point no .1 is Wages.

Wages means wages as per Factory Act 1948 which includes payment to apprentices.
