Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how rental income is treated for tax purposes in a partnership firm, especially when partners own the property. It explains that if partners are the owners, the rental income is generally not taxable in the firm's hands unless the property is transferred. The response also defines partnership and firm according to Indian law and notes that firms are taxed as separate entities, regardless of registration status.

Income from business or profession
If the owner of the property is partner then it is not taxable in the hands of firm unless it is transferred through POA

Partnership gets the same meaning as defined in Section 4 of the Indian Partnership Act 1932. Partnership firm is taxed as a separate entity. There is no difference in calculation for registered firms and unregistered firms. A partnership firm should submit its partnership deed in the first year of its assessment and later on only when there is any change in the terms and constitution of partnership.  

The terms ‘Partnership’, ‘Partner’ and ‘Firm’ as defined under section 2 (23) of Income Tax Act, have the same meaning as assigned to them in the Indian Partnership Act, 1932.  

Section 4 of the India Partnership Act has defined the word ‘Partnership’ as “the relation between persons who have agreed to share the profits of a business carried on by all or any of them acting for all”.
