Check whether you have shown 8% of your gross receipts as income from business or profession u/s 44AD. For AY 15-16 you could claim interest on capital to partners out of 8% income. If all particulars and claim are correct and as per law you can file response to defective notice u/s 139(9) by stating that income is zero because out of 8%, partners interest on capital has been claimed and after claiming the same there is no income in the hands of the firm as interest on partners capital is a deductible expense for a firm.
