A partnership firm is a separate taxable entity under the Income-tax Act only from the date it comes into existence, so it cannot claim interest expenditure attributable to an earlier period when the business was still a proprietorship concern. The Tribunal held that the firm, having commenced on 15.06.2014, was entitled to deduct expenses only for its own period of existence and not for 01.04.2014 to 14.06.2014.
