As per the explanations given in the Income tax Act “Salary” includes dearness allowance, if the terms of employment so provide, but excludes all other allowances and perquisites.

“As per explanation given under Rule 3 of IT Rules which clearly stipulates that ” salary includes the pay, allowances, bonus payable monthly or otherwise but does not include the following viz., :- (i) Dearness Allowance or Dearness pay unless it enters into the computation of superannuation or retirement benefits of the assessee concerned ”

 As per our extant Pension Rules 1972 pay plus DP will only form part for the retirement benefits. Whereas in the New Pension Scheme it is otherwise (i.e) 10% of pay + DA + DP is the subscription by the employee and contribution by the employer.

New in Income tax  details  for  2011-12 (Assessment Year 2012-13)
Contribution to New Pension System (NPS) by employer (in the case of government employee it is 10% of pay in pay band and grade pay) is to be included in the income like we did in the previous years. However, in order to encourage investments in NPS, this amount has been exempted from payment of any Income tax. In other words, while the entire Contribution to NPS to the employee has to be included in the income of employee, the same to the extent of 10% of salary can be deducted from the income. Hence, in the case of a Government Employee, 100% of Government Contribution to NPS is exempted..
Savings/Deductions under Chapter VI-A:
  • Section 80C (Amount paid towards life insurance premium, contributions in GPF, CPF, PPF, NPS, NSS etc, tuition fees, payment, Housing Loan principal repayment)
  • Section 80CCC (Deduction in respect of contributions to certain pension funds)
  • Section 80CCD (Deduction in respect of contributions to pension scheme of Central Government)


Note: Section 80CCE restricts aggregate amount of deduction under section 80C, 80CCC and 80CCD to one lakh rupees). The subscribers in New Pension Scheme (NPS) are allowed to deduct the entire government contribution in NPS without any ceiling. In the last year (financial year 2010-11) Government contribution in NPS was also subjected to Rs. one lakh restriction under Section 80 CCE.
  • Deductions under Sec. 80D for Health Insurance of parents. (Max. Rs. 20,000/- if parents are Senior Citizen, otherwise Rs. 15,000/-).
  • Section 80DD (Deduction in respect of maintenance including medical treatment of dependent who is a person with disability- Maximum amount- Rs. 1 lakh)
  • Section 80DDB (Deduction in respect of medical treatment. Maximum amount – Rs.40,000)
  • Section 80E (Deduction in respect of interest on loan taken for higher education)
  • Section 80G (Deduction in respect of donations to certain funds, charitable institutions, etc.)
  • Section 80GG (Deduction in respect of rents paid subject to ceiling if HRA not received)
  • Section 80GGA (Deduction in respect of certain donations for scientific research or rural development)
  • Section 80GGC (Deduction in respect of contributions given by any person to political parties)
  • Section 80U (Deduction in case of a person with disability-An amount of Rs.50,000 and Rs. 1 lakh in the case of self is physically disabled and severely physically disabled respectively)
Other aspects of HRA :
In the case of employee residing in his own house, is the HRA exempt from Tax ?
No. As he is not paying any rent, so exemption from tax with regard to H.R.A. is restricted to ‘Nil’.

Should Rent receipt compulsorily be given to DDO ?
No. salaried employees drawing house rent allowance upto Rs.3,000 pm will be exempted from giving rent receipt to DDO. But in the regular assessment of the employee, the Assessing Officer is free to make enquiry or request proof of payment of rent by assessee.

The exemption from tax with regard to HRA is restricted to the least of the following amounts:-

(i) Actual amount of  H.R.A.
(ii) The amount by which actual rent paid by the employee exceeds 10% of his salary;
(iii) 50% of salary if the rented house is situated at Delhi, Bombay, Kolkata or Chennai, or
40% of the salary in the case of other cities.

A new section 80CCF has been inserted by the Finance Act, 2010, wef 01.04.2011. The section 80CCF provides for deduction available to an individual or a HUF, the whole of the amount, to the extent such amount does not exceed Rs 20,000,paid or deposited during financial year 2010-11, as subscription to long-term infrastructure bonds as notified by the Central Govt for the purpose of this section.
(Board Notification no 48/2010 dated 09.09.2010)

Deduction under this section can not exceed Rs 20,000 and are available only for current financial year 2011-12. The deduction under this section will be in addition to overall limit of deduction of upto Rs one lakh under section 80C, 80CCC and sub section (1) of Section 80 CCD.
