In my opinion, HUF can pay salary to its member unless it is considered reasonable u/s 40A(2)

WHERE THE HUF CARRIES ON A BUSINESS, IT CAN PAY SALARY TO ANY MEMBER WHO PUTS HIS INDIVIDUAL EFFORT . IN MY OPINION SALARY PAID FOR INDIVIDUAL EFFORT IS ALLOWABLE SUBJECT TO REASONABLENESS CONTAINED IN SEC 40 A(2) OF THE ACT.
