A company is a juristic person and therefore can become a partner in a partnership firm, if it is authorised to do so by its objects.
However, remuneration should be paid only to a working partner. For this purpose working partner means an individual who is actively engaged in conducting the affairs of the business or profession of the firm of which he is a partner - Explanation 4 to section 40(b) of the Income tax Act.
Hence, in view of above the remuneration cannot be paid to a partner being a company.
