The firm and the company are two seperate entities. No set off by an assessee is permissible even for the same entity.An assessee does not have a right to set off. Under section 245, it is only the Dept which has the right to set off (but of the same entity). The assessee does not have any such right. On the refund assessee can claim interest and on the short fall the assessee has to pay interest.
Sincerely,
