BASIC CONCEPT
Any amount received by an individual shall be treated as salary only i the relationship between payerand payee is that o an employer and employee. Te employee may be a ull time employee or part- timeemployee.
Basis o Charge Sec. 5
For charging tax under income under the salary the oremost requirement is that the relationship oemployer and employee must subsist between the payer and payee.
Even i the person is in employment with more than one employer, all kinds o benets extracted rom
such kind o contract would be taxable under income under the head salaries. Te basic diference one must remember between orgone and surrender o salary is that even i
orgone, salary is taxable but when salary is voluntarily transerred to the central government, suchsalary is not taxable.
Salary is taxable on due or receipt basis whichever is earlier. Accounting method o employee isnot relevant.
Salary Sec. 171
It means any kind o:
Wages
Annuity Gratuity, ees, bonus, commission, perk or prot in lieu o salary or wages.
Any advance o salary
Any amount on account o leave encashment
Any contribution to RPF to the extent it is taxable.
Any interest on RPF to the extent it is taxable
Any contribution under Sec. 80CCD under scheme ramed by CG.
Place o Accrual
Salary is Deemed to accrue at place where service is rendered , however there is an exception to the same:
Where an Indian National is rendering service outside on behal o government o India outside Indiasuch salary is deemed to accrue and arise in India Itsel and allowances and Perks to such person arealso exempt rom tax. And on the principle o reciprocity any salary or wages paid in India to a oreignnational in this behal shall also not be taxable in India.
Also Salary received rom UNO would not be taxable in India.
TAXATION OF ADVANCED SALARY AND ARREARS OF SALARY
Any advance salary received would be taxable in the previous year in which it is received on receiptbasis and any arrears o salary received which is not taxed earlier would be taxable in the year in whichthey are allowed , however recipient would be entitled to claim relie under Sec. 89 in respect o sucharrears.

Common DoubtQuestion 1: Whether exemption o 1,000 is available while computing taxable value o perquisites oEducation acility and balance amount is taxable?
Answer: It was held in case o Delhi Public School that in case o Education Facility i the cost o educationo similar school exceeds ` 1000, the entire amount is taxable. Otherwise nothing taxable. E.g, i the cost osimilar school ` 1200 p.m, then ` 1200 p.m is taxable and not just ` 200 p.m.
A contrary view was held in case oBal Bharati Public School that ` 1000 exemption should be given. E.g.,cost o similar school ` 1200 p.m then only` 200 p.m is taxable.
