13 September 2014 Even though you not claim as the expenditure dis allowance attracted because you can not enjoy with other monies .

It means you acting as agent on behalf of government , you cannot enjoy with the government money . So dis allowance attracted u/s 43B and also refer 2(24) i.e., which included as income under the definition of I T ACt.
