Salary paid to your car driver by your employer is a perquisite and is treated as such.If the car belonged to your employer and driver is also provided with the car for official use then it is not treated as a perquisite.

No it is only personal expenses. No Deduction allowed as long as your having main source of income is Salay.If you have business income resonable portion of driver salary can be claimed as busniness expenses.
