Option 1
Basic - 50%
HRA - 20%
Conveyance - 20% (Are there any rules regarding this?)

Option 2
Basic - 40%
HRA - 20%
Conveyance - 25% (Are there any rules regarding this?)

In my opinion, the breakdown of salary components is as follows:
- Basic: 35% (max)
- HRA: Up to 50%
- Conveyance: Max 800 per month
- Medical reimbursement: Max 1250 per month
- Other (specifically - special allowance): Remaining of the salary
If your organization is willing to provide food coupons or gift coupons as a fringe benefit, the maximum amount for tax exemption is 36,000 per annum (3,000 per month).

Thanks for the reply. I have a few follow-up questions. Is the INR 800 standard? I thought it would be different if the employee has a two-wheeler or a four-wheeler. Also, the company will bear all the health insurance costs, so will that change anything?

Also, i was told that "Fringe Benefit Tax" has been abolished in 2009. So did something else replace this?

The conveyance of INR 800 is the maximum allowable amount which will be exempted in IT. Other allowances such as petrol bill, driver salary, vehicle maintenance, and LTA will go for reimbursement and can also be a part of CTC but will be given on submission of original bills so that these expenses can be exempted as non-taxable income.
Also, note that the Sodexo or food coupons on fringe benefits have been availed up to a maximum of 3000/month.

If the employee claims fuel and maintenance charges for availing of tax exemption, then they can't claim ₹800 per month towards conveyance allowance.
Food coupons are restricted up to ₹2,700 per month as tax-exempt in this FY 2011-12.
Gift vouchers up to ₹5,000 per year are tax-exempt.
