Dear Neha Sachdev,
I am sure that there will be many others working in the organisation similar to your husband. First your husband need to discreetly find out how the others prefer a claim. Once he is convinced that the others are claiming own vehicle reimbursement (based on rate/ Km basis if such a HR policy exists) or claiming cab/ auto reimbursements then he can diplomatically seek explanation from his boss on the reasons for his disallowing his claim.
May be the top management is curbing your husband's boss to cut down costs. But your husband can convince his boss by comparing work completed vs expenses incurred when he travels by public transport and when he travels by his own vehicle. He can also compare his expenses when he uses his own vehicle and cab. It is a difficult task but it is still worth. Assuming your husband quits and the boss also quits subsequently for some other reason your husband would have lost a good job and as someone cited how sure is he to get a better boss.
NEVER EVER ASK YOUR BOSS TO DO YOUR JOB. IT WILL BACKFIRE AND YOU MIGHT LOOSE YOUR JOB INSTANTLY AND WILL BE ON THE STREETS.

Ms. Neha,
Good Afternoon!!!!!!!!!!
This is absoultely right that "Boss ia always right" but Boss must have to understand the actual problem. If there is clear cut policy regarding the TA than why he has problem? He must have to understand. If Boss is not approved the Amt than go to his immediate boss with written TA policy. Why the person choose the private sector? As per my thought for the career advancement and career growth. If the co's higher authority and other memebers are not getting this thing than must have to change the job freqently untill you will not got the another job.

Dear Neha,
I tend to agree to sivaipm's advice. I notice that your husband works for a 'bank' not a 'facilities management company'. In banks, generally there is a strong culture of following policies and procedures due to banking being a heavily regulated/monitored industry. Thus, the culture prevails in all departments and functions. So while he can diplomatically tell his boss of the reasons why using own vehicle should be a preference, he can always go to HR and inform them of this undue pressure, if negotiating with the boss doesnt work. 'Boss is always right' yes; but systems do support employees and no one can stop one from availing entitlements that the system provides, especially when it has potential implications on work quality/secrecy.
As for quitting, NO! He should keep looking for a better options for career advancement as we all do, and when the right opportunity strikes, he should 'move ahead'.
Good luck to you:)
