You are being paid more than the rates prescribed by ICAI. Under Section 10(16) you may not find any exemption for the Stipend of this kind. . 192 is applicable where employer employee relationship exists. Decide in your case . The amount so paid is not in the form of Scholarship or is like any scholarship. . Its a compensation for the Services rendered and not helpful in carrying on your studies. .
