Dear All,

Kindly provide your opinion on below query.

Rule 3(2) of Income Tax Act lays down the valuation of perquisites of a Motor Car or any other automotive conveyance.

Where in case of a motor car owned by employee and is used for official purposes. Whether travel from residence to office and vise-versa on daily basis can be treated as official purpose.?

If yes than whether fuel reimbursement to employees by employer for this purpose is fully exempt from income tax?
