About Partnership Firm

A partnership firm is one of the simplest ways for two or more people to run a business together. It is quick to start, has low compliance and is governed by an agreement the partners write themselves.

NewStarts drafts a clear partnership deed, arranges stamping and notarisation, applies for the firm's PAN and files registration with the Registrar of Firms in your state. We also help with the bank account, GST and MSME registrations that most firms need.

What is Partnership Firm?

A partnership firm is a relationship between two or more persons who agree to share the profits of a business carried on by all or any of them, governed by the Indian Partnership Act, 1932 and a written partnership deed.
