A laptop is not a perquisites and not taxale in the head of director. Company should capitalise the valuse of laptop and charge depreciation in every year.
Mobile phone should also be capitalsed and 10% of the cost of mobile will be treated as a perquisites in the hands of the director and tax shpuld be calculated accordingly.
