There are three Partners taking remuneration Rs.4,20,000/- p a each. and TDS @ 10% has been deducted and paid u/s 194T. etds returns are filed However in terms of profit of the partnership firm remuneration each of Rs.1,00,000/- is allowable towards remuneration to partners My question is balance Rs.3,20,000/- can be adjusted as drawings of partner and also whether etds returns need to be revised with remuneration as Rs.1,00,000/- instead of Rs.4.20 L ?

Excess partner remuneration beyond Section 40(b) limits becomes disallowable expenditure for the firm, but it does not automatically become drawings. If Rs.4.20 lakh was actually paid/credited and TDS u/s 194T was deducted, generally no TDS revision is required. The safer approach is to disallow excess remuneration in the firm’s tax computation while partners continue offering the full amount as taxable income.
