no partnership firm cant become partner in another firm , because its not juristic person

Agree with Disha
Kindly refer the Dulichand Laxminarayan case law

In Dulichand Laxminarayan v. CIT(2)[1956]29 ITR 535, The Supreme Court has also held that “partnership” being the relation between persons, who have agreed to share th e profits of a business carried on by all or any of them acting for all, and “persons” who enter into the partnership being called individually “partners” or collectively “a firm” the word “person” contemplates only natural or artificial, i.e., legal persons, and neither a firm nor a Hindu undivided family can be that person

I think u can enter in to a joint venture agreement between 2 partnership firms.
