u/s 2(24) any special allowance granted to the assessee shall be treated as income.
But u/s 10(14) read with rule 2BB, any allowance granted by the employer to meet the official performance of duties and the same is expended by the employee on such duties, is exempt from tax.

Dear Mr. Ravikumar,
Thanks for your reply.
We have taken this amount as Special Allowance in the pay slip under the Break-up for salary. Hence it appears from your reply that it is fully taxable.
But in the IT reckoner table there is a mention that Special Allowance is exempt @ Rs.200/- per month.
Will this not be applicable for the above case. If so how should we show this exemption in Form 16.

Rs.200/-as you said is for any special compensatory allowance in the nature of border area allowance,remote locality allowance or difficult area allowance or disturbed area allowance and this is covered u/s 10(14) of the income tax act,1961.

If it is falling any of the heads mentioned in Special allowances prescribed as exempt you can consider that respective amount. Otherwise it is taxable.

Rs.200/- is also allowed for special compensatory (tribal areas/schedule areas/agency areas)allowance for places in states like MP,CHENNAI,UP,KARNATAKA,TRIPURA,ASSAM,WEST BENGAL,BIHAR AND ORISSA.

Dear Sirs,
Since the salary for us is processed in chennai for employees in Chennai, I can take Rs.200/- per month as exemption under special allowance u/s 10(14).
The same will be reflected in Form 16 under Section 10 exemptions.
Am I right.
Pl advise.
