08 May 2020 I am paying Telephone / Internet Expenses of Rs 764/- per month (One Landline + One Mobile Postpaid Connection) which is non reimbursable by the employer. I am working as a Salaried Employee. Please let me know under which Income Tax Section can I claim deduction for the same if the same are non reimbursable by the employer. I am getting proper Bills for the same from the Communication Vendor.I need to claim only tax benefit on the same by sending the same to my employer. Please reply urgently as Tax Declarations are on the way.

08 May 2020 No deduction is allowed for Telephone or Internet Expenses for Employees. If you were a Freelancer I think you would had the opportunity for claim the same as a expenses.
