12 February 2010 In a private company there should be minimum two directors and minimum two shareholders. So its not compulsory to have 7 partners.

17 February 2010 your query has not been understood by the persons who have answered. There is no compulsion for a firm having 7 partners. It is at the discreation of the firm whether or not to convert into a company.
When the number of partners of a firm carrying on non-banking business exceed 20, and in case of banking business exceed 10, then such firm becomes an illegal company. In this case, the firm has to get converted into a company.

The procedure of converting is that first the partners shall register a company and then the company shall take over the business of the firm. In case you need further help, you can write at amolgkabra@gmail.com
