Further I had a query that what is the meaning of exempt income for the applicability of ITR -1. As per my understanding the HRA and Tranport allowance received by a salaried employee are exempt incomes. But their is no clarity in law regarding it.So,if it is in excess of Rs. 5000/-. Is ITR 2 applicable then??

Dear, Hra, Transport and other allowances are exempt u/s 10, in this case ITR 1 is required to file. Exempt income means interest income, dividend income, agricultural income etc., if these income are more than 5000 then ITR 2 is required to file. However, Deduction u/s 80TTA is available upto 10000 for intt on SB a/c
