Salary is split into salary+phone allowance. I want to use my own mobile, as it is more convenient. Can I claim tax deduction for the phone used for work later on? What does phone allowance include? Is it just for the device or includes plan as well? Is phone allowance taxed? If the employer splits the salary to include phone allowance, does it change the amount of tax I will be liable for (because I still earn the same salary, just part of it would now reflect as phone allowance on my payslip).
Pleaee guide me.
