To he substituted for Circular R. Dis. No. 31 of 192711072-1. T./27, dated the 20th
December 1927, as revised by a Circular hearing the same number issued on the
10th May 1928.
CENTRAL BOARD OF REVENUE.
Simla, the 7th June 1928.
CIRCULAR.
S ubject.— Salaries—Sterling overseas pay—Officer on leave in the United Kingdom
drawing rupee leave pay in India—Liability to tax of sterling pay.
The question has been raised whether, under section 18 (2) {a) of the Indian
Income-tax Act, XI of 1922, that part of his leave salary that is paid in sterling
in the United Kingdom to an officer on leave out of India should be included in the
income from which tax is deducted at source by the officer paying him the rupee
portion of the leave salary in India.
2. Section 18 (2) (a) of the Indian Income-tax Act provides that all payments
on account of salary made out of India by and on behalf of the Government shall
be included in the amount on which tax is deducted at source in India, The
section does not differentiate between payments made during leave and payments
made when on duty. But all leave salary paid in the United Kingdom or a Colony
to Government servants on leave in the United Kingdom or the Colony has been
exempted from tax under a Notification issued under section 60 of the Indian
Income-tax Act. (See paragraph 16 of the Income-tax Manual). Any sterling
overseas pay or other sum that may be paid in the United Kingdom or a Colony
to an officer on leave in the United Kingdom or the Colony on account of his salary
while on leave is, therefore, exempt from Indian Income-tax. The fact that
a part of the leave salary is drawn in India does not affect the exemption of the
balance drawn in the United Kingdom or a Colony.
3. The same principle applies to other payments falling under " salaries "
within the meaning of section 7 of the Indian Income-tax Act made partly in India
and partly out of India and exempt under any notification issued under section 60
of the Indian Income-tax Act. The salary paid in the United Kingdom or a
Colony to an officer on duty in the United Kingdom or a Colony is exempt irres
pective of whether it includes sterling overseas pay or not. So also vacation
salaries paid in the United Kingdom or a Colony when on vacation therein.
