    Question

    Which of the following does not fall under “undue

    advantage” according to the PC Act?
    A Monetary gifts Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Transfer/posting benefits Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Legal remuneration Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Foreign trips offered privately Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Promise of employment Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    “Undue advantage” explicitly excludes legal remuneration under the PC Act. Legal remuneration refers to salary, allowances, or benefits that a public servant is lawfully entitled to receive under service rules. All other benefits such as money, postings, foreign trips, or promises of employment can constitute undue advantage if they are linked to an official act. Therefore, legal remuneration alone does not fall within the mischief of the Act.
