One of my clients – say Mr. A is going to start with Electrical and Plumbing work for building under construction. Contract is between builder and Mr. A. Now Mr. A wants to sub contract the labour job work to another contactor. Mr. B. Query: 1. Whether Mr. A can go for Joint venture with Mr.B. 2. Or Sub contracting with B. Basically I want to know difference between JV & sub contact. Also suggest which more beneficial to Mr.A. If possible list out the formalities / document require in query 1 & 2.

when A and B come together and share the responsibility, it shall be called as JV. When A is responsible for the said contract and A gets the work done from B, it may be a sub contract
