Hi guys,

Will I get paid the various allowances like telephone allowance/attire allowance, etc.? I shall be helpful if you guys can guide me as I am a fresher with no previous experience in HR/tax matters...

Hello Ankur, as far as i know, your in-hand salary will include all the allowances except for:  1) Provident Fund Contribution of 780/- which is deducted from salary

2) Group insurance premium of 86/- per month as mentioned which will also be deducted

3) Income tax (tds) will be deducted, after which, the remaining amt. will be your in-hand salary.

Allowances like House Rent are partly taxable. Also, the medical reimbursement is not paid with salary but reimbursed only after you incur actual medical expenses, but i'm not too sure about that. For the meal coupons, they might give you the coupons itself, worth 2500, or the amt. could be paid to you, which you should ask HR.

Hello Ankur.

Generally a company gives such structure to allow employees to claim tax exemptions from income from salary.

As per your offer letter a monthly deduction of only Rs.780 (PF Contribution) and Rs. 86 (Group mediclaim) will be deducted.

As far as food coupons are concern if the company provides you coupons you can always use it if required or can also encash the same, but the same will be taxable if you plan to encash it.

Congrads and all the best for your new venture.

Thanks for all the helpful replies. I have a fairly good idea of what to expect now. I guess I need to consult the HR after joining regarding clarity on the two items: medical reimbursement and meal coupons.
