PAN of Sole proprietor is Same. Salary paid by an entity to same PAN???

While partnership is all together different entity, w.r.t. partner/s.

Please explain in detail!

Well, for partnership firm, the working partners draw salary. As the partnership firm is assessed separately the salary is assessed in the hands of individual partner.

But for proprietor, even if it withdraws salary, the amount gets added to his total income, may not be under PGBP head but Salary head. So, finally there is no change in aggregate tax. This is basic principle....

If you are thinking of deductible perquisites or standard deduction etc. that was not considered while enacting the IT act.
