....(A), has erred in law in deleting the addition of Rs. 13,78,601/- and Rs. 48,000/- made on account of interest on capital and remuneration from M/s. Dynamech. 1.1. While doing so, the Ld. CIT(A), failed to appreciate that: i) AO is enabled to alter the profit or income during the assessment proceedings. ii) It is a fact that interest and remuneration had to be provided to all the partners at the rate and amount outlined in the partnership deed.

The AO, therefore, held that interest on capital amounting to Rs. 13,78,601/- and remuneration of R.48,000/- was the income of the assessee and added the same to her total income.

....ng the profit and gains of such an eligible profits for the purposes of deduction under this section, take the amount of profits as may be reasonably taken to have been derived therefrom. Thus sub-section has been made applicable to section 80IB by virtue of sub-section (13) of section 80IB. However, this sub-section only enables, the AO to effect the profit of the undertaking claiming deduction u/s 80IB, which is M/s. Dynamech in this case.

Dynamech. As noted earlier, the terms of partnership deed are not so worded so as to make payment of int....
