19 December 2008 Respected Sir,

According to explanation of expenses incurred on account of hospitality-
food, beverages etc provided to visitors in the office and outside the office is liable to FBT. However, as per CIRCULAR NO.8/2005 on FBT employer-employee relationship is a pre-requisite for the levy of FBT, then how can FBT be leived on expenditure incurred on visitors.

Please explain.

Thanks and regards
