29 May 2013 Yes two firms can form new firm as partnership is between 2 or more persons and not Individuals. But from new firm partners of old firm can not claim remuneration as remuneration is allowed to working partner. A firm being an unnatural person can not be a working partner. hence no remuneration allowed.
Hence it is advised that partners of old firms becomes partners in new firm rather making their respective as partner.
