Hi Folks,

We have an employee working abroad to whom we pay $50/day as a daily allowance. Every month, he gets a $1500 salary in addition to the allowance.

I want to know if this daily allowance is taxable according to our Income Tax laws and, if so, under which section of the IT Act.

Hi, DA is not taxable .This DA should be deposited in employees current account not in salary account in order to save him from tax point of view. Thanks. HRBuff
