Is Leave Encashment Taxable After Resignation? Seeking Clarity on Tax Rules

ArunRaja.b
I quit my previous company in September 2016, and as part of the Full and Final settlement, I was paid 75,000 as leave encashment.

Online posts are providing mixed details on whether this amount is taxable or not.

In simple terms, is leave encashment post-resignation as part of FnF taxable?

Hello there,

"FnF" is part of your income, so you must pay tax on that income.
