Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

I'm joining a remote company, and they usually send employees amazon gift cards so that they can buy laptops.

In the case of India, since the max gift card amount is 10k rupees, it is a little inconvenient. Hence, they're sending me the money to buy it myself, but I'm worried if this amount will be considered taxable.

Is money given by company to buy a laptop taxable?
