Solution:- By Amlan Dutta

(i)Medical Reimbursement - It is tax-Free Prerequisites under Section 17(2) till 15000 ......



If an amount higher than Rs.15,000 is incurred on the medical bills by the employee, the excess amount is added to the head salary of the employee at the time of ITR filing.

(ii) Telephone allowance - It must be telephone reimbursement ...

Telephone Allowance enjoys no exemption and is fully taxable

Most company accountants miss this point and show it under allowance head ...anyways, considering this as reimbursement also will come under tax free perquisite under section 17(2)
