IT IS BETER TO TAKE A CAR LEASE IN WHICH CASE THE EMPLOYER WILL TAKE THE LEASE IF THAT IS SO AND THAT EXPENSES ON PRIVATE RUNNING ARE MET BY U ONLY THEN THERE WILL BE LOWEST INCIDENCE OF PERQUISITE TAXATION AND LEAST DOCUMENTATION WILL BE REQD IF SUCH CAR IS USED FOR OFFICIAL PURPOSES ONLY THEN NO PERQUISITE BUT U WILL HAVE TO MAINTAIN CERTAIN DOCUMENTS
