10 November 2009 Dear all,

Could u plz tell me: Whether a partner in a partnership firm can become a beneficial shareholder (i.e. on behalf of a firm) in a private limited company. If yes, the relevant section

Secondly, would the investment be reflected in books of the firm or the partner in individual capacity.

Thanking you for your co-operation and awaiting for your responses

10 November 2009 As per my understanding a partner in a partnership firm can not become a beneficial shareholder (i.e. on behalf of a firm) in a private limited company.

Reason being p'ship firm is not allowed to become member of company directly or indirectly through nominee.

10 November 2009 I also feel so, since 187C cannot be applied in the instant case.

10 November 2009 Any person can be a beneficial shareholder including a firm the restriction is on trusts not firms.
