There is no need to pay by cash even cheque payment, transfer to employee account is sufficient.

LTA is exempted 2 times between a block of 4 financial year. the payment should debited in LTA a/c in company books. Usually IInd A/c fair, hotel accommodation, boarding expenses are allowed.

For bifurcation of gross there is lot methods based on their IT ceiling
