I we travel during new year e.g. on 25th december 2021 and come back on 2nd January 2022 by Air travel, how will it be calculated in LTA claim?


A. Dear client,
It does not seem like these dates will be problematic for you since under a Leave Travel Allowance (LTA), one can claim LTA for two times in a block of 4 years. Moreover, the actual calculation depends on your salary as well.
Thank you.

icon How to consider the income from house?

WIFE CONSTRUCTED BUILDING GIFTED BY HER HUSBAND WITH HER SAVING AND LOAN AMOUNT. RENT RECEIVED FROM THE BUILDING WILL BE ADDED TO THE WIFE'S INCOME OR HUSBAND'S INCOME. BOTH ARE INCOME TAX ASSESSES.


A. Hi,
Income from house property is defined as the income earned from a property by the assessee. House property includes the building itself and any land attached to the building. Taxability may not necessarily be on actual rent or income received. If the property is not let out, the tax will be charged on the potential income the property is capable of yielding.
