A company being an artificial person can become a partner in a partnership firm.

Hi,

YES, A private limited company can become partner in a partnership firm. 

There are no requirements under the companies act 1956 and Indian partnership act 1932 in this case.

However it is always a good corporate practice to pass a board resolution. This resolution is not required to be filed with ROC.

Sample board resolution is :

“RESOLVED THAT the Company be and is hereby authorised to become partner in Partnership Firm under the name and style of “XXX”

“FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the company be and is hereby authorised to make investment in partnership firm “XXX” for the future prospects.”

“FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Mr. M and/ or Mrs. M, Director of the Company be and are hereby authorized to negotiate and finalise the terms and conditions of proposed investment, to execute all such papers, documents, and agreements as may be required in this connection and do all such acts, deeds or things as may be required or considered necessary or incidental for giving effect to the above resolution.”

Very much Thanks to Neha and other Frns, for Clarifying the doubt......

Dear Madam, if CG is required to appoint a foreign National as MD of  the private Limited company which is registered in India with Joint venture of foreign company and indian company.

Respected learned member Neha madam,

As I understand, in a company the liability will be limited. But in a partnership firm it will be joint and several (unless it is an LLP).  

If a company becomes a partner in a partnership firm whether the liability of the company will be limited to their % of stake? Whether the directors of the company will have joint and several liability?

Please enlighten me in this apect.

Hello, Sathyanarayanan ji,

Pls appreciate - 

1. In case of company, liability of shareholders is limited to the extent of their shareholding.

2. Liabilty of company being partner of partnership firm is unlimited. Directors are not liable unless they are negligent.

Thanks
