20 June 2017 Dear experts, we have registered a partnership firm in August 2016. The firm is in prototype development phase,we have generated no revenue. I have to file ITR for FY 216-17. I want to carry forward the losses from FY 16-17. so my query is it necessary to do tax audit to carry forward losses.

21 June 2017 but in partnership firm there is no basic exemption limit then how can his second condition be satisfied ? For the tax audit to be applicable, both the conditions are to be satisfied that Income less than 8% and net income more than minimum amount chargeable to tax.
