10 September 2024 Can we declare income u/s.44AD of a newly formed partnership firm for FY 2023-24 ? And can we also further deduct Salary and Interest on capital paid to partners in a non-audit case ?

10 September 2024 Thanks sir. If I conduct audit of the said firm, then whether Interest and salary to partners will be allowed as deduction or not ?

10 September 2024 Audit is not the criteria. If you declare income under normal assessment (tax audit may or may not be applicable), in that case you can deduct the salary & interest paid to partners as expenditures of the firm.

10 September 2024 Thanks for your quick reply sir. But I could not understand "normal assessment". If I prepare detailed profit and loss a/c and B/sheet, without audit, may I show the salary and interest to partners as expenses ?

Normal assessment in a way means 'not opting for sec. 44AD IT act (or presumptive assessment)'.
