Normally a ‘Person’ refers to an ‘Individual’, however under Income Tax, the person has broader meaning and coverage. For the purpose of charging Income-tax, the term ‘person’ has been defined under Section 2(31) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 to include Individuals, Hindu Undivided Families [HUFs], Association of Persons [AOPs], Body of individuals [BOIs], Firms, LLPs, Companies, Local authority and any Artificial Juridical Person (AJP).
