Dear Sir, Medical payment to approved hospital(for specified dieses) is exempt from tax. And for other medical reimbursement is taxable if it exceeds Rs. 15000/- in the hand of employees. As per CBDT circular it seems that when medical reimbursement to emploees exceeds Rs 15000/- than no FBT to Employer and if it is within 15000/- then only FBT is payable that means if Reimbursement is Rs 15100/- then no FBT on employer and for employee only Rs 100/- is taxable. Wheather my interpretation is Right or not. Please clarify. Regards CA. Sandeep Aggarwal

FBT on Medical reimbursement upto Rs 15000 is on employer. Any excess over Rs 15000, the employee is taxed and no FBT for employers on such excess.
