As per provisions of The Income Tax Act,1961 reimbursement by employer of actual expenditure incurred by an employee not exceeding in aggregate of Rs.15,000/- in the previous yera os exempt under section 17(2). Hence the bills can be submitted at any time during the year and not necessarily every month. Moreover submitting bills of Rs 1,240/- evry month raises suspicion about the geniunness of the expenditure.
