14 January 2010 Is there any difference between allowances and perqs in income tax law ?.

Does the salary include perqs also on which tax is already calculated for the purpose of calculation of valuation of housing accommodation provided by the employer? Reference notification on valuation of perqs dt 18.12.2009.
Please comment
