As per provision of Section 10(2A) of the Income Tax Act Share of profit to a person who is a partner of a Partnership Firm which is seperately assessed to Tax is exempt in his hands. Thus, if the firm has paid tax on its profits, individual share of the partner will not be taxable in his hands.
However, as per provisions of Section 28(v) any interst,bonus,salary,comission or remuneration, by whatever name called, due to, or recieved by, a partner of a firm from such firm( to the extent allowed as a deduction u/s 40(b) to the said firm) shall be taxable in the hands of the Partner under the head ' Profits & Gains From Business & Profession'
