(a) - i think only managing partner is eligible for remuneration in partnership firm for salary as per IT act. what r the consequences if other partners also draw remuneration - is it is not given any deduction as an expense in P&L a/c, if so then is it tax free in the hands of partners. Can partnership deed authorise salary payment to partners who are not managing partners.

Continuing on the subject,if the partner is not a working partner and he is drawing salary the said expenditure will not be allowed as a business expenditure of the partnership firm.

If the expenditure is not allowed as expense is that exempt in the hands of partners. If not exempt then i think it shall amount to double taxation of same income.

- If the remuneration / salary from the firm is not allowed as an expenditure in the hands of the firm, the same will not be treated as income of the partner
