Benefit of rebate u/s 88E is available to assessee in MAT Assessment on book profits u/s 115JB

October 24, 2011 3450 Views 0 comment Print

This is the legislative intent. That is a promise to give deduction of the tax already paid. This is the mode in which tax already paid is handed back at the time of final computation.
