Individual, HUF, company, firm, AOP BOI, Local authority and artificial juridical person but it dose not include
Co-operative societies. How ever tax rates are separately specified for cooperative society in finance act. So plz clarify me under which category of person cooperative society belongs to.

A Cooperative Society is a taxable entity under the Income Tax Act, 1961. A Cooperative Society under the Act is to be treated as an association of persons (AOP), which is included in the definition of 'person' under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Even though, for taxation purposes, the status of a cooperative society is to be taken as an Association of Persons, the section 67A and section 86 of the Act have been excluded from application to the members of society.
