Dear All,

Under section 17-Perquisites. For the valuation of Food Meals, it is given that Rs.50/- per meal is exempt.

Please Help

As per Rule 3(7)(iii) , if free food and non-alcoholic beverages provided by employer during working hours at offc/business premises or through paid vouchers non transferrable uable only at joint eatings, then value of meal upto Rs. 50 is exempt..

However, there is no limit specified for number of such meals..

Experts please comment. 

 

As it seems like Rs. 50.00 limit is for a day. Its not mentioned in section, but seems from sense. Wait for others.

no limit as of such in the section.

well normally the employer will provide about 2-3 meals...i mean this is left for common sense i think....but the act is silent about it..
