For example When a software engineer offered a annual salary of 3.5 lakh INR, he is expecting about 25k INR as his/her take home pay after deducting tax and provident fund. But his /her assumption comes down to ground when actual salary is credited to accounts and it is far less than what he had projected.
The next day he/she went to office with his/her offer letter and salary break-up and discussed it with the Finance department and found that Company have included the Telephone reimbursement, Petrol reimbursement (Conveyance Allowance) and Meal Coupons in the package i.e. reducing the take home salary. Reimbursement will only occur when bills are submitted.
