The compensation paid to an employee can be structured under the following heads:

Allowances: are generally defined as a fixed quantity of money or other substances given regularly for the purpose of meeting some particular requirements connected with the service rendered by the employee or as a compensation for unusual conditions of that service. The said Allowances can be granted under the following sub-heads:
House Rent Allowance:
House rent allowance received by an employee is taxable under the head Salaries upto the extent it is not exempt u/s 10(13A) of the Income Tax Act. The exemption is denied where the employee lives in his own house or in a house for which he does not pay rent. Otherwise house rent allowance is exempt to the extent of minimum of the following three amounts. The minimum of the following three amounts shall be exempt from tax and the balance shall be taxable and thus included in the gross salary of the employee.

Salary for the purpose of House rent allowance includes basic salary and dearness allowance if the terms of employment so provide.

Specified Special Allowance: these include allowances granted to meet expenses incurred wholly and necessarily in the performance of duties of office or to compensate the employee for increased cost of living and these are exempt from tax to the extent of actual amount received or the amounts spent for the specified purpose for which these were received. Few of such allowances are :

Refreshments: Any refreshment provided to the employees during office hours at the place of work.

Insurance: Any portion of the premia paid by an employer to effect or to keep in force an insurance on the health of the employee under an approved scheme. This covers reimbursement of the expense incurred by the employee for schemes approved under section 80D also.
Loans to employees: If the employer gives a loan to an employee either without interest or at a concessional rate of interest for construction or purchase of a house or for a conveyance, then the benefit of interest availed of by the employee would not be taxable.

Conveyance facility: provided for the journey between office and residence at a free of charge or at a conssesional rate
Perquisites which are taxable in all cases

WIN WIN SALARY STRUCTURE
It is possible for employers and employees to draw up tax-efficient, win-win compensation packages even in the FBT regime. Consider the case of an employee who was drawing Rs 7.2 lakh p.a. (cost-to-company), including reimbursements as below, in the pre-FBT regime. Companies may respond to the FBT in two ways. Salary Structure 1 below is drawn up by merging all these reimbursements into the employee's salary structureas some employers have done. In this case, the employee's tax liability is over Rs 97,000, but the company pays no FBT on these employee-specific reimbursements. Salary Structure 2 shows the smarter way for companies to do it: by retaining these as reimbursements (and not building them into the employee's salary, which would be taxed at 33.66 per cent), and paying an FBT (in most cases 6.7 per cent). Even if this tax on the employer is passed on to the employee (by, for instance, lowering the cost-to-company package to the extent of the FBT payable on these reimbursements), the employee's tax liability is lower by about Rs 47,000 a year than in Scenario 1. And here too the employer does not effectively bear the FBT on these employee-specific reimbursements. It's a win-win strategy.
