Dear Sir

Our employer is making the payments of the telephone bills of some managerial employees. The Telephone (BSNL Land line) is owned by the employee.

Please let me know that this amount is taxable in the hands of the employee. Can I treat this is a Perquisite.

An early reply is very much appreciated.
