co op housing societies are exempt from tax because mutual understanding & they are invested surplus fund in to banks & get interest

The whole of interest and dividend income derived by a Co Op Society from its investment in any other Co Operative Society is deductible u/s.80P (2) (d). Thus, if interest is received on investment made in Co Operative bank, it is fully deductible u/s.80P (2) (d). Otherwise, other interest income is deductible u/s.80P (2) (c) (ii) upto Rs.50000/-.

It is taxable because the main aim of society is not lend the loan and accept deposit.
