Converting Sole Proprietorship to Partnership

 


Convert Sole Proprietorship to Partnership Firm in India

Expand Your Business by Bringing in Partners – Legally and Seamlessly


What is a Partnership Firm?

A Partnership Firm is a business entity where two or more individuals come together to operate and manage a business, sharing profits, responsibilities, and liabilities. If you are currently running a sole proprietorship and planning to grow or diversify, converting into a partnership firm offers better flexibility and credibility.


Why Convert to a Partnership?

  • Inclusion of New Partners & Skillsets

  • Better Capital Infusion Opportunities

  • Shared Risk & Responsibility

  • Enhanced Business Growth & Reach

  • Improved Decision-Making with Shared Expertise

  • Recognition under Indian Partnership Act, 1932


Key Features of a Partnership Firm

  • Legal identity under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932

  • Shared profits and liabilities

  • Requires a Partnership Deed

  • Option to register the firm with Registrar of Firms (optional but beneficial)
