Yes, the notional rent needs to be considered for the same. The content of the A.O. is correct.

enlightened No the ans is wrong.

For the purpose of Section 22 the business carried on by the firm should be regarded as being carried on the all the partners. Thus annual letting value of a building belonging to the assessee which is in the occupation of a firm in which the asssessee is a partner is not includible in income of the assessee under section 22.

plz refer case CIT VS K.M Jagannathan
