WHAT IS Partnership Firm?
Partnership firms in India are governed by the Indian Partnership Act, 1932. While it is not compulsory to register your partnership firm as there are no penalties for non-registration, it is advisable since the following rights are denied to an unregistered firm:
A partner cannot file a suit in any court against the firm or other partners for the enforcement of any right arising from a contract or right conferred by the Partnership Act
A right arising from a contract cannot be enforced in any Court by or on behalf of your firm against any third party
Further, the firm or any of its partners cannot claim a set off (i.e. mutual adjustment of debts owned by the disputant parties to one another) or other proceedings in a dispute with a third party
For the purpose of registering a Partnership Firm, there must be Minimum 2 partners.
