Dear Gopal,
I have a birght idea for you. If you want your wife's income should not be clubbed with yours. You dont pay any salary to your wife, because when you pay salary from a concern in which you have substantial interest, then this incomes of both of you will be clubbed in the hands which recieve higher income without such clubbing.
Rather than paying the salary from your firm, you let that money reside in the firm and distribute it after paying income tax from the firm itself. The amunt such received by your wife as partner of the firm will not be clubbed in any case. It is very well mentioned in the partnership act 1932 that one of the partner can work for all other partners. Income tax act also doesnt have any problems in such, as the tax once paid on the amount by the assessment of firm will not be taxable in the hands of parnters again.
About interest, it is always provided only when your wife provides some of her capital money to the company. This will not be clubbed in any case. No worried about interest SIR!
