CAN THE FIRM DEBIT THE AMOUNT OF HOUSE RENT IN IT'S PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT ? WILL IT BE ALLOWED AS A DEDUCTION BY THE INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT ?
PLEASE GUIDE ME

24 April 2018 Yes, the amount paid as rent to a partner for using his house for the business, as a part of the agreement, will be allowed as a deduction in the hands of the firm.

The amount paid must not be unreasonable and excessive so as to attract disallowance under Section 40A(2).
