Is it necessary for a Company/Employer to ask for bills for reimbursements of benefits like Newspaper, Mobile Bills, Petrol, etc
Can the Employer reimburse on the basis of a declaration?
Employer can reimburse expenses on the basis of declaration, if a prescribed limit is fixed by him for expenses. However, it is always better to supplement bills/vouchers along with the claim, for tax benefits for employees.
In case of declaration only, there will be chances to submit false declaration , though no expenses have been incurred by the employee. Demanding bills can help in curbing this practice to a large extent
