My mother underwent medical treatment for Interstitial Lung Disease at a private hospital and later expired on 26-01-2020. A proportion of her hospital bills was reimbursed by her employer and it was paid to me post her death in FY22. Is the amount taxable in my hands?

 

Can I claim tax exemption based on Rule 3A?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether medical reimbursement paid to a legal heir after an employee's death is taxable. The consensus is that reimbursements, particularly up to £50,000 as per Rule 3A, are generally considered a reimbursement of expenses rather than taxable income. Therefore, it typically does not need to be reported in your Income Tax Return (ITR).

No need to report as it is not an income , it's only reimbursement of expenses
