- Direct Employer Payments: Benevolence funds provided directly by an employer to an employee are generally included in the employee's gross income under Section 102(c).
- Qualified Disaster Relief Payments: Payments made by an employer to employees for disaster-related expenses can be excluded from gross income under Section 139 if they meet the criteria for qualified disaster relief payments.
- Documentation: Employers must ensure that payments are commensurate with the expenses incurred and maintain adequate records to support the exclusion from gross income.
In conclusion, while benevolence funds provided by an employer are typically taxable, exceptions exist under Section 139 for qualified disaster relief payments, provided specific criteria and documentation requirements are met.
