taxing all components of a CTC or gross salary. The remuneration components mainly consist of:
1) Basic salary
The base salary is always fully taxed.
2) Calculation of income tax - HRA
If a taxpayer receives the Rental Allowance (HRA) and pays the rent for a dwelling, then he can apply for an exemption under section 10 [13A] subject to the lesser of the following limitations mentioned, or he can be claimed a minimum of the following amounts as exempt from tax:
(i) Actual amount received
(ii) 50% of the salary if you live in big cities (eg Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Calcutta) and 40% of the salary otherwise.
(iii) Rent exceeding 10% of salary
For the purposes of calculating the exempt HRA amount, Salary will mean the base salary plus the depreciation allowance [if part of the retirement benefits] and the commission earned on the basis of turnover.
NOTE. If a taxpayer who receives the HRA fails to pay the rent, the full amount of the HRA will be taxed.
3) Variable payment
Variable remuneration is part of the remuneration, usually determined by the worker's performance and entirely taxable. Reimbursement (travel expenses, books and newspapers/periodicals, mobile communications, entertainment, etc.)
Pursuant to section 10 (14) of the Information Technology Act, benefits awarded to employees for employment purposes are exempt from tax provided that such expenses are actually incurred by the employees. The employee must have the required invoices and supporting documents as proof to apply for the exemption.

The entertainment allowance, on the other hand, is entirely taxable in the case of private employees. If this representation allowance is granted to employees for the reimbursement of the reception costs of corporate customers, or for commercial purposes, it can be requested as an exception pursuant to paragraph 10, paragraph 14, of the IT law.
