The exemption generally applies to compensation received under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, other applicable enactments, standing orders, awards, contracts of service, or approved schemes, and is limited to the least of the actual amount received, the amount calculated under section 25F(b), and the amount notified by the Central Government.
