19 February 2008 A PERSON IS LIABLE FOR FRINGE BENEFIT TAX EVEN IF HE DOES NOT HAVE ANY INCOME CHARGEABLE TO INCOME TAX.
FOR EXAMPLE A COMPANY HAVING AGR. INCOME EXEMPT UNDER SEC 10 IS STILL LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF FBT IF OTHER CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED.
FBT IS NOT PAYABLE BY A TRUST,FUND OR INSTITUTION OR A COMPANY REGD. UNDER SEC 25 OF COMPANY'S ACT IF ITS INCOME IS EXEMPT UNDER SEC 10(23C) OR IS REGISTERED UNDER SEC 12AA OF INCOME TAX ACT.
