My Company is paying Rs.1,250/- every month to all employees in their pay slip. This amount has been treated as exempted while calculating tax liability. Without taking any proof/s for amount spent on medical expenses, my Company is taking declaration from employee that the amount received by the employee has been spent for the purpose for which it has been given. Will it be correct on the part of Income Tax Act/Law? What will be the end responsibility of Employee as well as Employer?
