Hi all, I wanted to know if the tax will be applied to other allowances like conveyance, healthcare allowances, education, and food coupons. If applied, then what percentage of taxes will be applied?

Please clarify healthcare allowance. Please note that tax exemptions are already available:

- Conveyance Allowance: ₹800 per month – ₹9,600 per annum.
- Medical Allowance: ₹1,250 per month – ₹15,000 per annum.
- Education Allowance: ₹200 per month – ₹2,400 per annum (Subject to 2 children's school attendance).
- Food Coupons: ₹1,250 per month – ₹15,000 per annum (₹50 per day x 25 days = ₹1,250).
- Mediclaim Hospitalization: If any, is not taxable.
