clarification on Car Allowance

This query is : Resolved 

03 September 2007 Is there any tax planning that can be made on car allowance for the salaried employees, if so how can we plan


03 September 2007 Employer's expenses: Rs 1,200 per month if the rating of the car is up to 16 hp or the cubic capacity of the engine is up to 1.88 litres;

otherwise, Rs 1,600 per month is taken as the value of the perquisite. If the employer also provides a chauffeur, an additional amount of Rs 600 is added to the value of the perk.

Employee's expenses: Rs 400 per month if the rating of the car is up to 16 hp or the cubic capacity of the engine is upto 1.88 litres; otherwise Rs 600 per month will be the value of the perquisite. If the employer also provides a chauffeur, an additional amount of Rs 600 is added to the value of the perk.


Official use only: Not a perquisite
Private use only: Actual expenses incurred by the employer
For official and private use: Actual expense incurred by the employer less Rs 600. However, if the employer/employee claims that the amount to be included as perquisite is less than the amount so determined, then proper documentation has to be maintained.
