12 May 2026 Income Tax: The employer's contribution to an unrecognized private welfare fund is generally disallowed as a business expense under Section 40A(9).

GST: No GST is applicable on the transfer of funds, but the company cannot claim Input Tax Credit on expenses related to such a fund.

Employee: The amount will be taxed in the employee's hands at the time of payment/withdrawal rather than at the time of contribution.
