Features of Partnership firm

Contract:

The contract is the most important one in a partnership firm. Partnership only can be identified or recognised by a contract. For e.g. if a person died who was one of the partner in the firm; his son can claim the shares from the firm but he cannot become a partner in that firm unless he signed in a contract prior with the other persons concerned.

Similarly, a person from the Hindu Undivided Family carrying a business only by status and not by any legal agreement would not be considered as a partner. Thus, it clearly proves that partnership contract is the basic foundation for a firm.

Number of Partners:

As per Indian Partnership act 1932, it doesn’t mention anything about the maximum number of partners. But, in Companies Act, at least two members needed to be in partnership firm. In a banking sector business, the limitations in the number of partners are ten whereas in non-banking business, the maximum no of partners can be twenty. More than the limit will be considered as illegal.

Carrying on a business:

In a widest sense, the business includes the small trade, occupation or a profession. The main thing is to carrying on the business activities being as a partner by the legal agreement.

When one or more persons want to share the income of the property among them but no partnership, they will not be considered as a partner since they haven’t carried the business activities.

Mutual Agency:

Business should be carried by all the partners in a firm or else one or two partners can act on behalf of others. Mutual agency is a term which makes the partners to act both the agent and a principal; it enables all the partners to carry out their business on behalf of other partners.

Utmost Good Faith and Honesty:

This kind of concept purely depends and begins with the reliability, honesty and a faith amongst the partners.

Unlimited Liability:

If the asset of the partnership firm doesn’t meet the requirements and obligations for enhancing the firm, the private asset of the partner could be used for this purpose.

Restrictions on the transferability of shares:

If any partner need to issue or transfer the shares from the firm to the outsiders, it would be restricted if he didn’t get the consent from the other partners.
