Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a laptop or computer provided by an employer for an employee's use at home is taxable under the head of salary. While the general consensus is that the use of such an asset is not a taxable perquisite, it becomes taxable upon sale. The thread also touches upon the distinction between personal use and use for official work from home.

Use of laptop is not a taxable perquisite. Taxable only when sold.
