Key Facts & Timelines
| Point | Details |
|---|---|
| Law | Indian Partnership Act, 1932 |
| Minimum partners | 2 |
| Registration | With the Registrar of Firms — optional but strongly recommended |
| Firm PAN | Mandatory; firm files its own ITR (ITR-5) |
| Liability | Partners are jointly and personally liable for firm debts |
Note: Register the firm. An unregistered partnership cannot sue to enforce its rights in court — registration with the Registrar of Firms protects the partners. A clear, well-drafted deed prevents most partner disputes.
Key Compliances

If registered — periodic + annual returns.
Deduct and file where applicable.
Update the deed and Registrar on any change in partners or terms.
