Hi,
Our company is providing free lunch to employees. Whether it is possible to issue Meals coupen for Rs 100 per day in addition to the lunch.
What is the tax implication if any?

Non Transferable Meal coupens are exempt from FBT.

here there are two aspects to consider One is the company is provinding lunch to employees and foodcoupans, lunch allowance(Including food coupans) of Rs.50 per day of 26 days in a month is not taxable in the hands of employee nor it does not attract FBT.
for employee above Rs.15600 p.a. should be considered for e/ee while calculating TDS under sec.192
