24 June 2008 savings out of allowance is not taxable.

24 June 2008 Is there any specific provision under the Act from which I can relate or any judgment.

Because under of Income tax act it was written allowance received by employee of govt of India outside india is not taxable i.e., only for indian ammbassdor and other officials.

It is specific to Govt servants.
