Before arriving at adjusted book profit for calculation of partners remuneration you should minus previous year brought forward loss maximum to the extent current year profit

After subtracting b/f losses if you have remaining profit balance then minus unabsorbed depreciation maximum to the extent remaining current year profit

In your case you can minus previous b/f losses upto the current year profit and no further reduction required of unabsorbed depreciation.

Further note that in the case of loss you can give Rs. 150000/- remuneration to the partners

I hope it will be help full to you

Book profit is about current year's profit/loss. No adjustments regarding b/f loss or unabsorbed depreciation are necessary for calculating maximum remuneration permissible for deduction.
