Salary or remuneration paid to partners is not taxable in the hands of partners as 'salary' but it is considered as 'income from business'. No employer-employee relationship exists between partner and partnership firm.
Explanation 2 to Sec. 15 of the Income Tax Act says that, any salary, bonus, commission or remuneration, by whatever name called, due to, or received by, a partner of a firm from the firm shall not be regarded as 'salary' and shall not be chargeable to income-tax under the head 'salaries'.
