A company provides transportation facility to all its employees for travelling from office to home and home to office. This company is not a transport undertaking. Now is this a perquisite in any way to the employees?

The Cab(Transport) facility provided by the Employer is NOT a perquisite...reason is the defination which says "ANY BENEFIT DUE TO EMPLOYER EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP..." and Cab facility for commuting between office & residence is considered as OFFICIAL PURPOSE and as such employee is not deriving any benefit out of it...Anything to qualify for perquisite have to have an element of personal benefit to employees apart from official purpose...Hence not taxable...
Even Practically Cab facility provided by BPOs/ KPOs is not being charged to tax in the hands of employees..(YOU CAN CONFIRM THIS THING AMOGST YOUR FRIENDS ALSO)
