§6 · FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is limited liability available in a Partnership Firm?+
No. Unlike an LLP or Private Limited Company, a Partnership Firm does not offer limited liability protection — partners remain personally liable for the firm's debts.
Is registration with the Registrar of Firms mandatory?+
Registration is not always legally mandatory, but it is strongly recommended as an unregistered firm cannot sue third parties to enforce contractual rights.
Can profit-sharing ratios be unequal between partners?+
Yes. Profit and loss sharing ratios are entirely up to the partners and are documented in the Partnership Agreement.
Does CapitalBox's fee include government charges?+
No. CapitalBox charges a fixed consultancy fee of ₹8,000 + GST. Government charges such as stamp duty, PAN/TAN and Registrar filing fees are applicable separately.
Can a Partnership Firm later convert into an LLP?+
Yes, a Partnership Firm can be converted into an LLP at a later stage to gain limited liability protection, typically as the business scales. Explore LLP Registration →
