Sakhi Bai was admitted as a partner w.e.f. 25th July, 1973 in the place of Sri Ram Chandra. A new deed was executed on 21st Aug., 1973. The ITO granted registration under s. 185(1) on 22nd March, 1976. Later he observed that the profit for the period during which Smt. Sakhi Bai was a partner in the firm had not been credited to her A/c but the profit for the entire period, namely the calendar year 1973 had been credited to her A/c but the profit for the entire period, namely the calendar year 1973 had been credited to the A/c of Sri Ram Chandra.

We have also gone through the judgment of the Allahabad High Court. The facts of that case are clearly distinguishable. In that case the division of profit or loss between the partners was not in accordance with the terms of the partnership deed.
