We have provided to our employee, a leased furnished accommodation.
Now the Rule says,15 % of salary or lease rent paid, whichever is lower.. PLUS 10 % per annum of the cost of furniture provided.
I have two questions,
1. What is the meaning of salary for this purpose ?
2. House has been taken on rent (alongwith all the furnitures). No separate valuation for furniture is available. We only need to pay the monthly leased rent for all (House + furniture) @ 50000/- per month. What will be the perquisite valuation in this case ??

Salary meaning for Rent free accomodation : Basic pay+ DA+Bonus+commission+ fees+ all taxable portion of allowances+ other monetory benefits which is taxable
If the funrniture also taken on hire basis the hire charges( not cost) for the furniture need to add to the valuation of accomodation
