science last 3 years assessee having only rental income & no other income.

from this year only want to give interest & remuneration to partners, can they give?

As per Income Tax Act 1961 ::> Main criteria for deciding whether the rent is assessable as income from house property or as business income depends upon the fact that whether the assets are exploited commercially or whether the same are let out for enjoying the rent.:::::::: Even if a company is formed for the sole object of acquiring and letting out immovable properties, the rental income would be taxable as “Income from House property” and not as business income.::::: There are many case law which are supporting this situation both as HP income as well as PGBP income. :::: Now the point is if you want to consider it as PGBP income than you can claim Interest & Remuneration to Partners U/s. 40(b) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 subject to the fulfillment of conditions mentioned therein. but you cannot claim if you are considering that as HP income as you are getting Standard decution of 30%.
