13 September 2012 A pvt ltd Co had a book loss in accounting year 2010-11. It also has a carry forward loss as per normal provisions of I T Act.
It has a book profit in year 2011-12.
Can book loss of 2010-11 be adjusted against book profit of 2011-12 before computing MAT @ 18.5%?

13 September 2012 Minimum of the two (as per books) can be adjusted;-
carried forward loss , or unabsorbed depreciation.
In your case there is no unabsorbed depreciation, therefore book loss can't be adjusted.

14 September 2012 Thanks for your response. However request you to clarify by an example.
Suppose Net Loss for 2010-11 as per books in line with Companies Act Schedule VI is Ra 1 lakh before depreciation. Depreciation is say 20000/- So loss after depreciation is 1.2 lakhs. So what amount can be adjusted against book profit of 2011-12?


14 September 2012 Minimum of the two can be adjusted:-

Loss of 100000 or unabsorbed
depreciation of 20000, whichever less

Hence 20000 shall be adjusted.
