travelling allowance under ESIC

hariharan N (Querist) 21 July 2009 This query is : Resolved
I request the experts to justify with judgements,if any, whether travelling allowance paid to an employee is covered under employees' state insurance corporation. I am not clear whether to consider this or not while computing the ESI coverage.

Thanks and regards
