11 September 2009 As per section 40(b) remuneration should be allowed as deduction only for working partner if a huf is working partner and authoried by the partnership deed he can get the remuneration.But the as per 40(b) an individual who is actively participate in running the business is allowed for remuneration. One viw is that if the karta of the HUF participates in runing the bussiness he can be allowed for remuneration.
