Perquisite taxation modernisation streamlines valuation, standardises employer contribution limits and revises accommodation and medical exemptions.
The Bill reorganises and simplifies perquisite provisions by consolidating accommodation rules, removing detailed computation methods in favour of prescribed approaches, and eliminating distinct treatment for furnished and hotel accommodation. It streamlines benefits and amenities by replacing a monetary threshold with prescribed-amount determinations, unifies fund-related rules with a uniform cap on aggregate employer contributions and annual accretion calculations, and retains but modifies medical exemptions by removing the previous reimbursement ceiling and clarifying overseas treatment conditions.
