05 February 2010 Thanks Mr Menon,but how can i prove that it is purely for official purpose,what needs to be maintained from IT angle?

If the car is used for reaching office from residence and back and then for the official work from office,how are the details to be maintained to help me prove it is not a perquisite,and not be chargeable to tax in my salary.

Pls explain in detail how can it not be considered as a perquisite and not be chargeable to tax in salary

05 February 2010 Another clarification,if it is treated as salary income,then my salary slab will increase.I am getting the fuel cost against the actual bills of petrol,then how can it be a part of my salary income,pls clarify

05 February 2010 In your case the car belongs to the company all expenses incurred theron is the company's expense anybody the company permits can travel by it.An expense becomes a perk when the employer bears any expense on your behalf and doesn't recover it from you. Got my point?
