07 May 2013 The net profit is before interest on capital n partners remuneration or not not disclosed by you...if it is b4 then provide it as partnership deed and on balance amount the firm has to pay tax at flat 30%...again it is exempt in the hands of individual partner.

07 May 2013 you have to pay tax on Rs.43 Lacs

and there will be no tax on the shares of partner in this amount (i.e. Rs.43 Lacs)

but Rs.2 Lacs Interest & Rs.5 Lacs Remuneration

on this amount partners have to pay tax

07 May 2013 If Net profit before interest is 2 lakh then u have to provide interest on capital at the rate prescribe in ur partnership deed and balance amount is treated as partners remuneration which is equally divided for both partner...in this situation the partnership firm have not to pay tax as the profit is NIL and partners are liable to pay tax on interest amount and remuneration amount at the rate applicable to them...kindly note that you can not provide remuneration more than prescribe in income tax act..it is limited to ur profit amount
