first 3 lac profit of the partnership salry would be 150000or 90% of profit whichever is higher

for remaining profit 60% of profit could be salary for more detail read section 40b

partner salary would be taxable in hand of partners

it

as per the provisions of section 44AD 8% of the turnover is taxable income when sales are made in cash as well and 6%when all receipts are through normal banking channel.
if you opt for 44 Ad then no deduction for salary to partners, interest on Capital is allowed to partnership firm.

if your margin is below 8% in your business then you have to go for complete book maintain under section 44AA where you can claim all exp of your business and salary also

if you have more than 8 % profit and not interested to maintain complete books of accounting you can go for the 44 ad
