Hi,
If the partnership is holding any money relating to partner, then IT Dept can ask as you said above.
As the firm holds usually the profits / Salary of the partner, there are provisions under IT Act which gives the IT Officer, the right to recover the tax dues from such firm.

then there should be a ratio basis naa..
Ofcourse ..as there will be profit sharing ratio...the dues can be recovered only from the concerned partner's share.
Its a kind of Garnisee Order.
