Uniform to chef is not statutory obligation any expenditure for meeting the employers statutory obligation under the INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT STANDING ORDERS ACT 1946 IS NOT COVERED UNDER FBT. Expenditure on providing uniform reimbursment or washing expenses cannot be said to be employee welfare expenses.
