Will a retired employee be taxed on reimbursement on giving a certificate for incurring medical expenses and receiving a fixed amount of say Rs. 1500 per month under a compensatory contributory scheme of a public sector company or will the amount be tax free?.

Since this is a case of fixed medical reimbursement and not of Fixed medical allowance, the reimbursed amount up to Rs.15000 per annum will not be taxable. The amount above Rs.15,000 is taxable in the hands of the pensioner
