Chapter No. 05 - Salary - Leave Salary Exemption - [Sec. 10(10AA)]

Calculation of average salary:

Basic = 22,000 x 10 = 2,20,000

DA = 4,000 x 10 x .50 = 20,000

Average Salary = (2,20,000 + 20,000)/10 = 24,000

Calculation of Unavailed Leaves:

Leaves calculated – leaves availed – leaves encashed = (30 - 7 – 4) = 19 months

Leave Salary received exempt to the least of the following:

  1. 19 x 24,000 = 4,56,000
  2. 10 x 24,000 = 2,40,000
  3. ₹ 3,00,000
  4. ₹ 5,00,000

₹ 2,40,000 being the least of the four sums, is exempt u/s 10(10AA).
