Partnership Firm Registration and Annual Compliances
Ayushi MishraThe Indian Partnership Act of 1932 governs partnership firms in India. The Indian Partnership Act of 1932[1] defines partnership as “a relationship between people who have decided to share the profits of a business carried on by all or any of them acting for all.” A partnership firm is formed when two or more people come together to run a business as co-owners. All firm partners share profits and losses in proportion to their respective owners or as negotiated between them. Partnership firms arose from the limits of single proprietorship businesses.
