A  perquisite can be provided both by way as:-
·                                 Monetary payment : Employer either reimburses the expenses incurred by the employee for such facilities or pays on behalf of the employee. Ex:personal gas bills of the employee are in the name of employee and the employer reimburses the amount of such gas bills to him or pays on his behalf to the gas agency, it is in monetary terms and taxable in case of all employees; on the other hand, if such bills are in the name of employer, it will be perquisite in case of specified employee only.
 OR
·                                 Non-monetary payment/benefit : Payments which can be called non-monetary payments are car facility,  benefit on account of interest-free loans, rent-free accommodation, furniture provided to employees etc.
As defined earlier, Perquisite as any casual emolument or benefit attached to an office or position in addition to salary or wages, Mostly perquisites are associated with position or office.

·                               He has a substantial interest in the company, ie he is the beneficial owner of equity shares carrying 20% of voting power in the employer company.

·                     His monetary income under the head “Salaries” for the year exceeds Rs.24,000. The amount considered here includes amounts due from, paid or allowed by one or more employers. It excludes all non-monetary benefits.
