What is a Partnership Firm?

A Partnership Firm is a business structure where two or more individuals come together to operate a business and share profits as per an agreement known as the Partnership Deed. Under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, a partnership firm is formed through mutual agreement, defining each partner’s rights, duties, profit-sharing ratio, and responsibilities. A partnership firm is one of the oldest and most trusted business models in India – simple, flexible, and ideal for small and medium-sized businesses, family enterprises, and professional services.
