Tax treatment of employer-provided meals revised: What it means

Tax treatment of employer-provided meals revised: What it means

NewsBytes 2 months ago
In a major development, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has revised the tax treatment of meal card benefits under new income tax rules.
The revision, effective from April 1, 2026, raises the tax-exempt limit on employer-provided meals to ₹200 per meal from the previous ₹50. The earlier restriction that denied this benefit under the new income tax regime has also been removed.
