icon LTA for journeys during new year

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.

Asper section 54 of the Income Tax Act, taxation over capital gains from sale of property can be avoided by investing the money in other property or bonds. 54EC bond also comes under this category whereat is exempted.

As an F&O trader if your turnover does not exceed 2 crores you can choose to declare income at the presumptive rate. Under the new clause, an audit is required only if a taxpayer has declared income at the presumptive rate in any of the previous five years but wants to declare losses or income at less than the presumptive rate in the current year, provided his total income in the current year exceeds the basic exemption limit.
