Dear Anand,
The flexible components can be designed as follows:
- Medical Allowance: Rs. 15,000 per year
- Conveyance Allowance: Rs. 9,600 per year
- Child Education Allowance: Rs. 100 per month per child for a maximum of 2 children
- Sodexo Coupons: Maximum up to Rs. 2,500 per month
- LTA: You can claim any amount as LTA because once you provide proof of travel for yourself or your dependents (only domestic air tickets are reimbursable).
Any other allowances are taxable.
I hope I was able to assist you in formulating your salary to some extent, at least.
Regards,
Renu
