To answer your question, is transport allowance taxable ?

Yes, transport allowance paid to employees is considered to be fully taxable in India. This decision was taken by tax authorities when they reintroduced standard deduction after the financial year 2017-2018.

According to the  new tax regime of  FY 2018, a standard deduction of Rs. 40,000 can be claimed by a salaried employee.
