assume we have a loss for the last finacial year ,when we are calculating income tax for this year..

Answer / arjun bassi

first of all if a company or a firm has a loss it has to
compulsory file the return under section 139(3).
if we have a loss under any of the head of income in last
year then it can be carry forward or set off in the next
year from that particular head of income subject to certain
exceptions as per income tax act,1956 . As by doing this
we have to pay more tax as compared by not carrying forward
of losses.

Answer / h.r. sreepada bhagi

Income Tax Returns needs to be filed by a business entity
for every Assessment year and the loss calculated as per the
Income Tax Act, 1961 can be carried forward to the next
Assessment year.
While computing Income Tax for the Current Assessment year,
the loss brought forward from last can be set off as per the
provisions of Income Tax Act.
