Issues: Whether conveyance and additional conveyance allowance paid to an employee of the Life Insurance Corporation of India was exempt under section 10(14)(ii) of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
Analysis: The allowance claimed as exempt was examined in the context of section 10(14), which contemplates exemption only where the allowance is actually used for the prescribed purpose. The assessee did not produce evidence before the Assessing Officer, the appellate authority, or the Tribunal to show actual expenditure or actual use of the amount for discharge of official duties. In the absence of proof of actual use, the allowance could not be treated as exempt and was liable to be taxed as part of salary.
Conclusion: The claim for exemption was rejected and the allowance was held not exempt under section 10(14)(ii) of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
