Mr. X manufactures Commercial Tea and Commercial Coffee as two seperate businesses. Now his income from tea business is 6 lakhs and from coffee business it is 8 lakhs in an year. As per partly agriculture and partly business income his income from tea will be 60: 40 and for coffee it is 75:25. Sir, for tea 60% is 3,60,000 is agri-income and 40% it is 2,40,000 (business income which is less than minimum exemption limit). For coffee it is 6,00,000 and 2,00,000 where his business income is less than minimum exemption limit. How to calculate the tax liability of Mr. X (a) both tea and coffee are different businesses.
