A partnership firm is an organization which is formed with two or more persons to run a business with a view to earn profit. Each member of such a group is known as partner and collectively known as partnership firm. These firms are governed by the Indian Partnership Act, 1932. It is a Central Act but administered by State. In a unique feature, all partners have unlimited liability in the business. The partners are all individually and jointly liable for the firm and the payment of all debts. This means that even personal assets of a partner can be liquidated to meet the debts of the firm. It may be for temporary purpose or permanent. A partnership deed can be entered as such. The words LLC, Inc, PJSC, GMBC, PTE LTD, PVT LTD & LTD are not allowed to be used at the end of the firm's name. Certain words are prohibited in the firm name Ex: India, one can refer Prevention of Names and Emblems Act.
Firm registraton is not mandatory, with out registration also, we can apply pan card and run the business. It may be registered with the District Registrar office so as to show their customers that their business is registered.
To register a Partnership firm, there should be two partners. An NRI/Foreign National may become partners of the firm but one of the partners should be Indian local resident.
Who shall register a Partnership Firm: It is preferable for a small business owners where more capital is not required.
The Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is one of the business concepts in India, introduced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Government of India during the year 2008. Unlike a partnership firm, a limited liability partnership have limited liability in which some or all partners will have the limited liability. It exhibits the elements of both partnership and company. In LLP, one partner is not responsible or liable for another partner's negligence or misconduct.
The limited liability partnership is a legal entity and an alternative to corporate business form. It is liable to the extent of it's total assets whereas the partners liability is limited to the extent of their capital contribution. We can say LLP is an hybrid between a company and a partnership. LLP Registration is regulated by The Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India. The governing law for the LLP is Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008.
Who shall register LLP: Those who are looking for Traditional, Brick & Mortar Businesses.
The Partnership Firm can be formed with low cost and simple documentation where as a Private Limited Company or Limited Liability Partnerhip incurr lot of cost at the time of incorporation. Digital Signature Certificate is not required to registar a Partnership Firm. The annual compliance cost is much cheaper than that of Private Limited Company or Limited Liability Partnership. A partnership firm is not required to submit or file any documents with the Registrar of Firms an annual basis. It has to file documents with the Registar whenever there is a change in the constitution of the Firm.
Income Tax Audit is not required for a Partnership Firm if the turnover of the Firm does not exceed Rs. 1 Crore in a financial year and Rs. 2 Crore in case of presumtive income scheme. There is an opportunity for income splitting, an advantage of particular importance due to resultant tax savings. A maximum of 60% of Book Profits can be paid as remuneration to partners of the firm. The remuneration and interest to partners are elibilt to claim as deduction while computing the income from profits and gains from business and profession of the firm, which is subject to limits prescribed under Section 40(b) of the Income Tax Act. The following table illustrates the eligible rementaion payable to partners of the firm:

The Partnership Deed can be drafted as per the wishes of the partners of the firm. One partner may have more pwoers than others. One partner may become managing partner who will look after marketing, financial and maintaining the day to day administration and business and the other partner will assist first partner. One partner may be authorised to operate the bank account while the other may act as sleeping partner.
Unlike a Company, a Partnership Firm has a conrol over decision making of business transaction and it is vested in the hands of partners of the firm and the financail information of the business can not be accessed by third parties. In a Company, the financials can be easily accessable on MCA web portal.
The Partnership business is also relatively preferable for small businesses and the profits or losses are shared among the partners of the firm. In case of a Proprietorship business, the loss is to be born wolly by the proprietor concerned and in a Partnership business, it has to be shared by both the partners of the firm according the agreed ratio. Hence, the parners may incurr lessor loss when comparing with a Proprietorship business.
