Procedural compliance in partnership taxation: noncompliance bars firm deductions for partner payments while avoiding partner double taxation.
Clause 326 of the Income Tax Bill, 2025, applies where a partnership firm fails to comply with Clause 325 procedural requirements; it invokes a non-obstante override to disallow deductions for payments to partners described as interest, salary, bonus, commission or remuneration, and concurrently excludes those disallowed amounts from taxation in the hands of partners, mirroring the substantive effect of the earlier statute while updating cross-references and structure.
