SALARY STRUCTURE FROM EMPLOYEE'S POINT OFVIEW
Whle framing salary structure of the employees two important factors can be kept in view.
frstly, present versus future benefits, and secondly, consolidated salary versus pay, allowances,
Jerquisites and benefits.
n the first case a major part of salary can be paid every month and a minor part of it can
De accumulated for future. This amount will be paid to the employee either on his retirement or
t s death to his nominees Wwhen such amount is received after retirement/death, in some
Cases the whole amount is exempt while in some cases a part of it is taxable.
In the Second case when consolidated salary is paid, the whole amount is liable to tax. But
when a part of it is paid in the form of allowances, perquisites and bernefits, some of the items
are fully are added partly in salary income for tax
Thus, theexempted
tax incidence can beof the
while some reduced to some extent. The income tax provisionspurposes.
