hello, in my proprietorship business (services) to some employees I allow to get stuff from Fashion, Apparel, etc. websites basically as gifts for their good performance. Payments are made directly from Current Account and bill with app/website is in business name.
Is that considered as business expense and can be shown that way? please help.

It will be considered as business expenses. Gifts from an employer to employee is taxable as perquisites if their value is more than Rs 5,000. The Rs 5,000 limit is for an entire financial year.

Thanks sir for reply, but lets suppose if I order on behalf of them (e.g. clothes) and give them as gift, still it's INR 5000 per employee? Is that limit only for cash gifts? Is there any legal work around for this? Because that limit is too less. Does this limit also includes any gold coin, etc,?
And what's the limit, for gifting to vendors/resellers/associates? on occasions like Diwali, new year, etc.
