05 September 2012 No need to pay mat is your case.

But is want to clear one thing the while calculating of book profit you can set off
whichever is less
pervious year loss
or
unabsorbed depreciation

so you need to check that perious year loss of rs. 6 lakh fulfil the above mentioned condition or not?
