19 November 2010 the partnership deed of ABC & Co provides that all working partners (A and B)shall be entitled to remuneration in proportion of 2:1. the total remuneration shall be 50% of book profits.

is this deed is valid for the purpose of section 40(b)?

if the partners mutually decides for total remuneration only 30% of book profits, the same shall be allowable?

19 November 2010 Yes.
The determination of the partners remuneration is mentioned.
Yes, If all the partners agree to take only 30% of profits.

19 November 2010 As per query,the maximum and the proportion of sharing remuneration is mentioned in the partnership deed. However, the method of quantifying the remuneration and the minimum remuneration also should be specifically mentioned in the partnership deed. Otherwise, question of disallowance will arise from the assessing officer.
