Tax queries 1341 views 1 replies

Perquisite Value @ 15% is added to salary for income Tax computation against company House proveded in Cities with population above 4lacs and 7.5% in case of cities having population below 4 Lacs. Is it applicable to factories set up in rural villages coming under village panchayats which are not cities. In some cases Income Tax Department is insisting for adding 7.5% of grass salary as perquisite value and taxing accordingly. Is the stand of IT Department is legal?

Mr. John , If I m not wrong Basis of Valuation is as follows:

1. Exceeding 25 lakh                           -    15%

2. Exceeding 10 lakh below 25 lakh -   10%

3. any Other                                           -    7.5%

We can not comment on legality. we should say , is it justify to tax the perq in this recession period when salaried people r facing even job problem.?
