Partnership firm - exemption from income tax return filing ( ITR )

There are two cases:

(A) An partership firm has Only Dividend Income and no other income. Does it have to file return ? Is it exempted ?

(B) An partnership firm has Only Agriculture Income and no other income. Does it have to file return ? Is it exempted ?

Yes you have to file return in both the cases......

You need to file ROI in both cases. No exemption.
