Hi Charles, "fringe benefits" means compensation due to an employee pursuant to a written contract or written policy for holidays, time off for sickness or injury, time off for personal reasons or vacation, bonuses, authorized expenses incurred during the course of employment, and contributions made on behalf of an employee. In simple terms, all the monetary and non-monetary benefits beyond salary.
Perquisites or 'perks' as they are popularly known is the monetary content of fringe benefits. Perks are taxable according to Indian tax laws.

Dear Charles,
Anything in addition to Guaranteed Cash Compensation is Fringe Benifit.
Basic Salry and Allowances constitute GCC. Conveyance, Retirals,Houshing,Loans,Credit Card, Telephone, Insurance Coverage,Club Membership etc. are all Fringe Benefits. FB and quantum of FB is not guaranteed.
Perquisites are those facilities which the position carries. For example- once you are promoted to the position of Sr.Manager, you will be eligible availing car under company's own your car scheme.
Hope, I am clear to u.
