Sub: Perquisite Tax
Dear Sir,
It is observed that some of the local managements of different collieries have started to deduct amount in the name of Perquisite Tax. In this connection, it would not be out of place to mention that the matter has not been discussed at any level. In the year 2006-07 it was discussed at CIL level and a committee was constituted with the representatives of Trade Unions & Management who jointly urged before the Government of India for exemption of such taxes in respect of coal workers. As most of the quarters of Coal workers are situated at the interior places and quality of the quarters are inferior in comparison to other P.S.U.s. It is needless to say that most of the coal workers’ colony or housing areas are till deprived from drinking water and education of the children of employees. As a result CIL management agreed upon with the views of Trade Unions for the payment of the amount by the company and not by the workers.
Under the circumstances, once again, we will request you to refrain your local management and area management from deducting any amount from the salary of the coal workers in the name of Perquisite tax to avoid any sort of movement from the part of the workman.
Thanking you while awaiting prompt action and early reply.
Yours faithfully
