Hi,

I have a client who recieved Form 16 from his employer. In Form 16, the employer only gave exemption benefit of Transport allowance of Rs. 800pm and no other exemption benefits like Medical allowance (Max 15k), Education allowance (Rs.100pm/child) etc have been given.

My question is, while filing IT Return, can I take benefit of Education & Medical allowance exemption even tough the same is not stated in Form 16?

Thanks in advance.
