The provision of section 115WB(2)(J) uses the word Use of telephone. The penalty/delay payment charges are levied on late payment of telephone which is not use of telephone. Hence the charges levied towards delay in payment will not attract FBT.
hi mahesh, but the penalty has been levied on late payment in respect of use of telephone itself...so doesnt that fit into "Use of TELEPHONE" Please reply...even i am not sure
Mr.Iyer is right. Though penalty amount will be debited to Telephone expenses, the same can not be subjected to FBT.
Dear Friend, Plsase confirm the FBT liable on BSNL Bill ( Telephone - Land line).
Only amouunt to the extend of telephone bill can be charged under FBT
