Contribution to approved gratuity funds or provident funds would be outside the levy of fringe benefit tax. However, the Central Board of Direct Taxes circular is silent on applicability of FBT in respect of group personal accident/workman compensation insurance. It only states that only if the expenditure is a part of statutory obligation it would be exempted. Similar would also be the situation with regard to group health insurance, group medical insurance, group life insurance. We feel that all these payments are not a part of statutory obligation hence they would be subjected to FBT. However, the ESI contribution would be outside the purview of FBT because it is a statutory obligation.
