Please Help??

As per latest news came in FBT will not be asked in may 2010 exams but i m not able to understand the point of Rule 3 . it says that :

 

Therefore, the erstwhile Rule 3 would be applicable for May 2010 examination. All the perquisites which were earlier taxable in the hands of the employee, only if the employer was not liable to pay fringe benefit tax, would now be taxable in the hands of the employee in all cases, since no employer is liable to pay fringe benefit tax for A.Y.2010-11. 

(b)   Rule 3(7), providing for valuation of “other fringe benefits and amenities”, is based on the terms of the provisions contained in the erstwhile clause (vi) of section 17(2).  The Finance (No.2) Act, 2009 has amended section 17(2) by including certain other perquisites under clauses (vi) and (vii) of section 17(2). Consequently, the residual clause, namely, clause (viii) of section 17(2), now provides for taxing the value of any other fringe benefit or amenity as may be prescribed.  Therefore, the Rule 3(7), prescribing the fringe benefits or amenities in terms of the erstwhile clause (vi) [now clause (viii)] of section 17(2)] have been given in the latest study material relevant for May 2010 examination.


please explain this with example .

Dear Rakesh,

Since FBT is abolished from the F.y. 09-10, hence no question will be asked from that topic. Moreever, those expenses which were liable to fringe benefit earlier is liable to tax in the hands of employee. So don't gt confused........

Happy reading.........

enjy life.......
