Can any one reply sir

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) treats liquidated damages as taxable income. Although damages for physical injuries and illnesses can be excluded from taxation, other lawsuit damage awards, including liquidated damages, are taxable, according to the Internal Revenue Code. The IRS requires recipients of liquidated damage awards to include them as income on their 1099-Miscellaneous Income forms.
