07 May 2008 In my opinion, inadequate profits means, when after deducting managerial remuneration, there is loss in the P&L.

In other words, where company does not have enough profits to pay remuneration, it can pay remuneration as per section II of part II of schedule XIII.

07 May 2008 sir Yayati Tyagi, thanks for your Reply. but i got the answer for my query. let me explain about that.Let us say a company has effective capital of less than Rs 1 crore and does not want to pass a special resolution for paying managerial remuneration. The maximum it can pay per month is Rs 75,000 as per Schedule XIII. If the profits earned by the company are not sufficient to give Rs 75,000 per month to them if the normal provisions of the law are applied —i.e 5 per cent per one and 10 per cent for all of them put together. For e.g Company earning Profit Rs.1 crore By applying 5% rate it comes to 5lac but schedule XIII remuneration is 9lac (i.e 75000*12). so the company's profits is said to be inadequate.
