21 January 2009 Hi, I have availed LTR from my present employer. I travelled from my duty station to various religious places which are not directly connected by railways. I travelled by Hired Vehicle from point to point and returned back. My Employer deducted tax on the amount and allowed me only 2AC Railway fare from my duty station to Farest Railway station. My duty station is Bhuj (Kutch-Gujarat) and they considered railway fare from Ahmedabad Station. Is it Valid deduction?

21 January 2009 First class or deluxe class fare chargeable by GSRTC buses from Bhuj to Ahmedabad and back by the shortest route or the actual amount spent whichever is lower can also be considered as expenditure for tax purpose
