1. it has never been mandatory to have equal partition in case of mutual partition. but where partition is done by court then court will always award equal partition.
2. in case of umnatured inv., there are two options. first, break those inv. and then divide among the huf. second, mention in the partition deed that the inv. will be held till maturity and upon maturity it will be divided among members of huf
3. on partition huf ceases to exist, therefore any a/c maintained in the name of huf should be closed.
4. you can call it a formal procedure or you can say it the only procedure to avoid legal complications in the future. the procedure i am talking about is that always prepare a partition deed on a stamp paper.

so if account of the huf is closed athe time of partition, then how will the investment maturing at a later date will be encashed. i.e. in whose account?

the a/c shall be kept open till maturity of inv. if it is decided to partition that amount at maturity. but where it is decided to distribute such inv. at the time of partition then first inv. shall be broken before maturity and distributed then the a/c shall be closed
