did the firm had incurred losses??

Yes the firm incurref loss

No he cannot set off his share of loss from the income of his indiviulal business. But the same can be set off against the profits of partnership firm

no.. share of profit is exempt in the hands of individual.. 

and is taxable for partnership firm..

*profit includes loss

and for the purpose of income tax firm and partners are different..

but the share of loss cannot be set off from the partners's indiviual business loss...

yes.. it cannot be set off..

share of profit from partnership in hands of partner is exempt.. thus the same way any loss from firm will only deplete the partner's capital in the firm.. the partner cannot use such loss to set off his own individual income.. it is firm's loss and firm will get benefit of carry forward and set off.
