01 May 2026 Yes, a partnership firm can be a shareholder/member in a private limited company, subject to the Companies Act, AOA and MCA filing practice. However, for GST registration, the registration is of the private limited company, so documents of the company, its directors and the primary authorised signatory are required. Aadhaar is required only of individuals, not of the partnership firm. If the partnership firm is a shareholder/promoter, then PAN of the firm, partnership deed and authorisation in favour of one partner may be kept, and Aadhaar/PAN of that authorised partner may be required as the natural person representing the firm.
