Quick Summary
This discussion delves into whether a partnership nursing home is classified as a business or a profession for Income Tax purposes. While a proprietorship nursing home is generally considered a profession, the status of a partnership is debated. The content highlights conflicting interpretations and relevant legal judgments that suggest a partnership nursing home may be treated as a business.

It should be a Profession since as per IT act both Individual and Firm comes under the definition of Persons. Further, the fact that Proprietorship Nursing home is a classified as Profession and not business, so shall a Partnership Nursing home in the same manner.

But judgement given in following cases that Partnership Nursing Home is business:
