  • A Partnership Firm is not a Legal Entity apart from the partners constituting it and has limited identity for the purpose of tax law
  • Partnership is a concurrent subject, contracts of partnerships are included in the Entry no.7 of List III of The Constitution of India.
  • Unlimited Liability is one of the major disadvantages of partnership deed, the unlimited liability of partners for the debts and liabilities of the firm need to bear. Any partner can bind the firm and the firm is liable for all liabilities incurred by any firm on behalf of the firm. If property of partnership firm is insufficient to meet liabilities, personal property of any partner can be attached to pay the debts of the firm.
  • Partners are Mutual Agents, the business of firm can be carried on by all or any of them for all, every partner has the authority to bind the firm individually, act of any one partner is binding on all the partners. Thus, each partner is ‘agent’ of all the remaining partners. Hence, partners are ‘mutual agents’.
  • Oral or Written Agreements any of them could be the Partnership Agreement. The general rule of the Contract Act applies that the contract can be in be ‘oral’ or ‘written’ as long as it satisfies the basic conditions of being a contract.
  • Number of Partners is minimum 2 and maximum 50 in any kind of business activities, Since partnership is ‘agreement’ there must be minimum two partners. The Partnership Act does not put any restrictions on maximum number of partners. However, according to the Companies Act prohibits partnership consisting of more than 50 for any businesses, unless it is registered as a company or formed in pursuance of some other law. Some other law means companies and corporations formed via some other law passed by Parliament of India.
  • Mutual agency is the real test of ‘partnership firm’ set by the Courts of India, i.e. whether a partner can bind the firm by his/her act, i.e. whether he/she can act as agent of all other partners
