Answer / devbrat sharma

MAT is applicable to Companies eg
Companies who were incurring good amount of profit (as per profit & loss account) and declaring dividends to their shareholders were not liable to pay any income tax as their tax payable as per income tax act was either zero or very less.
To make such companies pay tax on their income who enjoy tax exemptions and incentives under various sections of the income tax act, government imposed Minimum Alternate Tax. As per the MAT provision,companies are required to pay a fixed percentage of book profit (Profit as per profit & Loss account) i.e 18.5% +surcharge(if applicable)+cess as Minimum Alternate Tax.
