I think TDS would be deducted u/s salary only. further company would also be liable for FBT...It would also be taxed in the hand fo recipients under other sources.

Only those expenditure should be included under employees welfare which are for the welfare of all employees or a group of employees and not for an employee as privileges, benefit, et. given to an employee. Hence, it should not be liable to FBT.
TDS is not to be deducted as this doesnot partake the character of salary.
It is not taxable in the hands of employees family as it is to be treated as capital receipt.
