First Auditors platform is a technology-driven platform that offers specialized legal and financial advisory services in India.
A Partnership Firm is a type of business organization where two or more individuals come together to manage and operate a business in accordance with the terms and objectives outlined in the Partnership Deed. Governed by the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, partnership firms are a popular choice for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the unorganized sectors due to the relatively simple registration process. A partnership firm can be formed with a minimum of two partners and a maximum of 20 partners (50 for banking businesses). The partners share profits and losses as per their agreement, and the firm does not have a separate legal identity distinct from its partners.
A Partnership Firm is ideal for small businesses and professionals who want to work together with shared responsibility and profits.
Documents are grouped by category for easy reference — partners, firm, and registered office.
The process involves drafting a partnership deed and registering it with the Registrar of Firms.
Choose a unique name for your partnership firm that is not similar to any existing firm or registered trademark.
Prepare a Partnership Deed on judicial stamp paper that includes the firm name, business activity, capital contribution, profit-sharing ratio, and other terms. It must be signed by all partners and witnessed.
Apply for the firm's Permanent Account Number (PAN) and Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number (TAN) through the appropriate forms.
Submit the partnership deed along with partner documents, address proof, and an affidavit confirming the accuracy of the information to the Registrar of Firms in your jurisdiction.
After verification, the Registrar of Firms issues a Certificate of Registration, confirming the firm's registration.
We assist with GST registration, opening a current bank account, and setting up the first-year compliance calendar.
The Certificate of Registration issued by the Registrar of Firms is valid until the firm is dissolved. There is no renewal filing for the certificate itself, but the firm must stay active through recurring compliance:
We manage every step of the registration process so you are never navigating the regulatory system alone.
We verify name availability and ensure your partnership structure meets all legal requirements.
We draft a comprehensive partnership deed that covers all essential terms and clauses to protect your interests.
