1. Salary Restructuring Restructuring your salary may not always be possible. But if your company permits, or if you are on good terms with your HR department, restructuring a few components could reduce your tax liability. 1)Opt for food coupons instead of lunch allowances, as they are exempt from tax up to Rs. 50 per meal.
