Hi all,
I recently shifted jobs from Mumbai to Bangalore. My new company paid me lump sum Rs. 2 Lacs as relocation expenses and charged me tax as per my tax slab. However, I incurred expenses (not paid by employer but by me directly) on i) movers and packers ii) air tickets for me and my wife.
Q1) Can I claim this as income tax exemption?
Q2) Will I need to submit these bills to my employer or can I claim those directly in my tax return in next assessment year?
Q3) If I can file directly in tax return, under which head and how do I provide proofs to government?
Thanks,
Ankit
