Allowability of working partner remuneration and tax treatment of commission on cash basis are examined. The article explains that where a partnership deed expressly adopts the statutory definition of book profit and authorises remuneration, an inadvertent numeric discrepancy in the deed does not negate authorisation; remuneration quantification is for the firm and payments within statutory computation limits are allowable, especially where the partner declared the amount separately.
