LLP receiving share of profit from other partnership firm is eligible for exemption under Income Tax

Last updated: 10 February 2023
Quick Summary
The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) in Bangalore has ruled that a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is to be treated as a firm under the Income Tax Act. Consequently, an LLP receiving a share of profits from another partnership firm is eligible for exemption under Section 10(2A) of the Act.
