Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the issue of 'double taxation' in Private Limited companies, where profits are taxed once at the company level and again when distributed as dividends to shareholders. Participants explore whether this is indeed double taxation and seek strategies for closely held companies to mitigate this effect. Suggestions include distributing profits via salaries to family members up to a certain limit and potentially classifying personal expenses as company expenditures, though the legal distinction between company and shareholder income is also highlighted.

As per the income tax act , Company & Shareholders are two different assesse and will be taxed as per their income . profit is companies income and Dividend distributed out of profit to share holders is shareholders income , so both are taxed according their income differently.
