In our private company, we have brought forward business losses of Rs. 8,01,749 and brought forward Long Term Capital Losses of Rs. 1,69,776 as on date. One shareholder holding 23.80% shares has passed away few months back. The husband of deceased shareholder has come up with a transmission request. I would like to know is there any restriction in Income Tax Act, for carry forward of losses to future years after change in beneficial ownership?
