13 February 2014 If 4 person make a scheme for a business. The scheme of business:-
They Collect 1300 rs. per person for 13 month. They give this plan to 4300 person.
After then they will do draw every month.
On Every draw they will give motorcycle, Cars and Led etc. Which person number will be announced in draw he collect his gift and after then he will not pay any premium.
Remaining people will get 21000/- on the end of this plan(Last Month/13th Month).
There is also some profit after complete of this plan.

So now in which category they have to registered them. In partnership or AOP, or Club & Association.

14 February 2014 just to confirm. each person will pay Rs 1300 per month for 13 months ie Rs 16900. And for all those who don't win anything, you give back 21000 per month? even assuming that you would give maximum gift for Rs 21000 per month, that too only one person each month, you would have 4287 people to be paid at the end. you would need to invest the surplus cash at 40% annualized to even break-even. thats not an easy thing to achieve for even the best in the markets.

At best these things are ponzi schemes used to fleece innocent investors...

regardless, you should register as a partnership/company.

The Amount they collect has some liabilities then which part of collection is shown in gross receipt and liabilities.
