Hi Ramanju,

our respected Finance Minister, Mr Pranab mukherjee, has made the statement "I propose to abolish Frienge Benefit Tax". So the entire provision related to FBT shall henceforth be abolished in its entirety.

FBT is abolished only for AY 2010-11 not for AY 2009-10 hence you have to discharge your FBT liabiliyt
