20 November 2007 CIRCULAR NO 8/2005 DT 29 TH AUG. 05 OF THE IT DEPT. HOLDS THAT EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP IS A PREREQUISITE FOR LEVY OF FBT.
EVEN THE CHARGING SECTION 115WA SAYS THE SAME.
IF THERE ARE NO EMPLOYEES, THERE IS NO FBT.
DIRECTOR IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE AS HE DOES NOT HOLD AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT OR APPOINTMENT LETTER.(REFER TAXMAN'S GUIDE TO FBT 2005 -PARA 2.10-1).
SO NO FBT IN THE CASE STATED ABOVE BY YOU.

04 December 2007 there is no employee employer relationship. therefore no FBT.

18 January 2008 then why TDS is deductible on director's salary when there is no employee-employer Relationship????????

10 August 2008 if director is employed by the co for e.g as executive director, wtd, then they are employees. & liable to tds & fbt.
