I AM EMPLOYEE OF TCS FOR ANNUAL SALARY OF RS. 3 LACS. I HAD GONE TO UAE FOR JOB OF TCS FOR 8 MONTHS IN F/Y 2012-13. I HAD RECEIVED ALLOWANCE OF RS 12 LACS IN DIRHAM (UAE CURRENCY) FROM UAE GOVT.BESIDES SALRY FROM TCS AND SENT THAT ALLOWANCE TO INDIA IN MY ACCOUNT. I AM RESIDENT OF INDIA. IS THIS ALLOWANCE TAXABLE IN INDIA THOUGH THAT IS TAX FREE IN UAE?
