They can be paid salaries like the way other employees are paid. If the family members who get hired by the company have no other income, then the company can pay them just Rs 2,50,000 a year. This will ensure that they don\u2019t become liable to pay taxes. Since the salaries paid to the employees is a cost to the company, it can be setoff against the company\u2019s taxable income, thereby reducing the overall tax outgo of the company.<\/p><h2 style=\"border: 0px solid #e5e7eb; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(0,50,115,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; margin: 40px 0px 30px; font-size: 36px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 43.2px; --text-opacity: 1; color: #314259; --tw-text-opacity: 1; font-family: Gilroy, sans-serif;\">Travelling and Accommodation<\/h2><p style=\"border: 0px solid #e5e7eb; --tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-color: rgba(0,50,115,.5); --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; margin: 20px 0px; --text-opacity: 1; color: #314259; font-size: 18px; --tw-text-opacity: 1; line-height: 32px; font-family: Gilroy, sans-serif;\">It is common for entrepreneurs to travel places for business purpose.
