Though you asked your question in one line, but it is not easy to give the answer.
If i will say company is liable to pay tax @ 30% on its taxable income calculated in accordance with normal provisions of the Income Tax or 18.50% on its book profit, whichever is higher.......then i dont think so it will serve your purpose. Your next quetion may be what is normal provisions/ what is book profit?
I am giving you a gist of few sections, which u need to study to understand the tax computation of partnership Firm and Company
Sec 28 - List of Income Covered under the head PGBP
Sec 32 - Depreciation
Sec 36 - Expenses allowable from PGBP Income
Sec 37(1) - General allowance of certain specific
Sec 43B - Certain expense allowable only on cash basis
Sec 115JB - Minimum Alternate Tax
Sec 40A(2), 40A(3)
Sec 40(b) - partner's salary
and many many many more other sections which are EQUALLY IMPORTANT and there is nothing like basic concept....
