I am having a problem regarding current year loss. One of my friend is working as a propritor in a propritorship firm. In that firm he got profit, which is taxable, and in his personal balance sheet he is paying interest on borrowed capital, which is invested in his firm. Now how to fill ITR-4 and where to mention that current year interest loss, mean in which column? Is it possible to merge personal and propritorship firm's balance sheet?

no this is not the case of loss to be set off, above interest is admissible as business expenditure from P & L only

Interest u/s 24 b can be set off since it comes under the House property head

The problem is, he have to balance sheets. One of the propritorship firm and second for his personal, in personal he is getting income from other heads too. In P &L account, he is writing interest as paid, but this interest he is paying for borrowed capital in direct to his firm name, and he is paying interest in personal balance sheet because he had taken unsecured loan from other persons, now can he combined both interest paid in P&L's interest said column?
