Quick Summary
As a sole proprietor, you cannot legally pay yourself a salary from your business. This is because there's no employer-employee relationship, a requirement for salary payments. Instead, you can withdraw funds as 'drawings,' which are considered personal expenses and are not deductible under Section 37 of the Income Tax Act 1961.
