05 November 2012 As we know in the case of an employee-

"Employers contribution to Unrecognized provident fund is not chargeable to tax at the time of contribution."

and

"When the employee finally receives the amount to the credit of the U-RPF at the time of retirement/superannuation it is taxable as salary"

Kindly mention the section/rule according to which employers contribution to U-RPF is given the above treatment

06 November 2012 Kindly rewrite your query, you said the non taxablity of contribution but the question will not arise of taxablity of expense. Taxablity aries of income not expenses.
