Compensation Structure - Which Can Save More Tax

I am facing a big problem with my compensation structure because other than education allowance and conveyance I don't have anything which can save tax from their earnings.
Can anybody tell me what other components I can include to save employees money.
Note: We don't pay anything in cash to employees, even a single paisa will get transferred to back account.

Hi Chirag,
U can add REIMBURSEMENT components in the salary structure like
MEDICAL REIMBURSMENT
KNOWLEDGE UPDATE
UNIFORM ALLOWANCE
PETROL & MAINTENANCE
HELPER
On all the above components , on production of the bilsl every month u can treat as NON TAXABLE else TAXABLE income.
HOpe this will help u in setting up the structure.

Hi folks,
I heard that car lease also to a lot of extent helps in saving the tax liability but i dont have much info as such.
If anybody can throw light on the same would be great.
Thanks

Dear all,
As per my knowledge the allowances given in the salary grid are not taxable until you produce the bills for them.
All the allowances are non-taxable

Dear All,
In our new budget it has been changed. Now all the fringe benefits will be taxable. Are these expenses will be still covered under non taxable components.
MEDICAL REIMBURSEMENT
KNOWLEDGE UPDATE
UNIFORM ALLOWANCE
PETROL & MAINTENANCE
HELPER
Conveyance REIMBURSEMENT I am already giving, because it is not an earning for employees I am not including it as his salary component.

Hi,
To save tax :
Special allowance can be split into:
1. Car Hiring -Non taxable upto Rs 1,20,000 per annum
2.Petrol allowance /maintenance Non taxable upto Rs 1,80,000 per annum
3.LTA Rs3000 per annum
4.Driver Salary Rs 60000
5.Education allowance 12000
Above the above mentioned limit 16.5% tax will be applicable.
The above split can be very helpful in saving tax.
However it would depend on the compensation structure provided or follwed by employer.

hi,
for availing tax exemption on car petrol & maintence reimbursement, shud the car b on employee's name only or can it be on any of his/her family member's name too?
