Dear Friends/ Experts,

I have a book profit of Rs. 8,00,000/- for last F.Y.

Further, in past years from AY 2010-11 to AY 2014- 2015 i had book losses. Also, i had depreciation for each of the years.. The depreciation for each year was less than, book losses for each year.

In MAT deduction coloum, there is a section which mentions Bought forward business loss or depreciation whichever is lower... Which loss are they talking about (as per I.T.Act or book losses)

They are taking about carry forward losses which will be left after adjusting last year profit
@ Shweta, sorry but did not get what you wish to tell
Hey, MAT is essentially based on book amounts. Its a separate code in itself. Here obviously reference is on book loss. there is huge controversy on calculation of this amount - refer article written by Pramod Achuthan on taxsutra on this
