i dont understand where is scope of income ,it is duty of employer to safeguard his /her employee

hi john,

first of all, there no income for the employee. then how the tax liability will come for the employee.

i am wrong, kindly elaborate your query.

fine...

Why should we tax the employee???? The expenses are incurred by employer...No income to employee...

as per  the persual of ur query, it is not clear that whether the employer is paid the legal charges as under the contractual agreement with the employee or any other reason which might be arise due to the act of the company. The chargeability is depend on the fact of the case.
