07 May 2010 Is it possible to give any employee the conveyance allowance from home to office and at the same time provide him with the company's car and reimburse for petrol?

07 May 2010 I think it's not logical to give allowance if you are reimbursing for fuel and provides car.

If you still wants to pay you can add that with other payhead.

Although there are no statutory rules governing pay structure and since both are taxable subject to some basic limit and/or conditions.
