NIL.

A) Residential Apartment Welfare Associations are categorised as Associations of Persons (AOP) under the Income Tax Law. 

B) The governing concept for applying income tax laws to the Association of Persons is the “Concept of Mutuality”. This concept means that the contributors to a fund and the beneficiaries of the fund are identical. This in turn implies that there is no scope for individual profits or gains. Any surplus generated in this fund which is income over expenditure is held by the association for future utilization to the benefit of the contributors.
== Complete tax exemption is given to funds/surplus funds to which the “Concept of Mutuality” applies.
