Bundle Explainer: Split Your Bill for HR Portals
JioFiber, Airtel Black, and similar plans combine Base Internet and OTT Subscription (Netflix, Prime, Disney+ etc.) in one bill. Many HR portals (Darwinbox, greytHR, Zoho People) require itemized proof.
How to split: Check your ISP bill or app—most show a breakdown. Enter "Base Internet" (broadband rental) and "OTT Bundle" (streaming add-on) separately in the form above. Our receipt will show both line items with GST, so you can upload to your HR portal as a single document or split if required.
Toggle "Split Base Internet Cost from OTT Bundle" to itemize. Section 17(2) compliant for WFH perquisites.

Methodology: Section 17(2) & HR Audit Compliance
Under Section 17(2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, broadband and internet reimbursements provided by an employer are treated as non-taxable perquisites when the expense is incurred wholly and exclusively for work purposes. This means that if your employer reimburses your broadband bill as part of a WFH (Work From Home) policy, the amount is not added to your taxable salary — provided proper documentation is submitted.
For Airtel Black and JioFiber subscribers, plans bundle Base Internet connectivity with OTT subscriptions (Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar) into a single monthly charge. This creates an audit risk: Darwinbox, greytHR, and Zoho People portals commonly restrict reimbursement to the core connectivity cost only, excluding entertainment add-ons. Submitting a bundled receipt without itemization is the most frequent reason WFH broadband claims are rejected during HR audits.
This generator solves that by letting you toggle the "Split Base Internet Cost from OTT Bundle" option, producing a receipt with separate line items for each component — both with their individual GST allocations. The resulting PDF is formatted to match the structured proof most HR portals require for Section 17(2) perquisite documentation.
