Communication Allowance is a personal employee benefit that is provided to an employee to meet mobile phone and internet recharge expense.
Communication Allowance on Mobile Phone and Internet Recharge for up to Rs 24,000 per year is tax free
As per the Income Tax Act/Rule Section 10(14) in India, Rs. 2,000 per month is tax exempted for an employee on submitting receipts to support their spends on mobile phone and internet.
Today the process is mostly done manually by the Human Resources department. Employees pay for mobile phone recharge or internet using their own credit/debit card or by cash, they collect the paper bills and bring it back to the office to submit for reimbursement.
INTRODUCING THE PAYSACK COMMUNICATION WALLET + CARD
The Paysack Communication Wallet + Card is a combination of a mobile wallet and a VISA prepaid card, thus enabling the Employee to use them to pay for mobile phone and internet recharge directly from the app or by using the card.
