Dear Rahul,

Cash Gifts to employees have always been taxable as Salary even when there was FBT........

Its just that Gifts in kind were not taxable when FBT was there........

After abolition of FBT - Gift in kind in excess of Rs. 5,000 shall be taxable as perquisite as per Rule 3

As far as Sec 40A(3) is concerned YES is covers payment to employees as well as will apply if amount exceeds the limit specified therein.

Agree with Mr.Amir bhai......

Yeah, it's right.
