Salary / HRA of State Minister

[Rajendra Prasad]

Dear Sir

From some of the articles , I got that Minister salary is taxable under Salaries Head where as MLA Salary is taxable under Other Sources. Am I Correct or not .

HRA of Minister is exempt under which section ?

Minister Salary is ₹ 14000/-

House Rent Allowance is ₹ 1.00 Lacs , Entire amount is spent.

Exemption for HRA of the Minister is to be claimed under Section 10(13A) or Section 10(14) , Please clarify ?

No tax is deducted by the pay officer of the state govt. If HRA is taxable , u/s 10(13A), why tds was not deducted by the pay officer.

Please clarify ?
