Partnership Business Registration in Pakistan Ask Wakeel .Pk

 

Registering a Partnership

In Pakistan, a partnership is a company that has been formed by a formal agreement between two or more persons or companies to do business together. The capital of the partnership is contributed by the partners and the partners are liable for all the debts of the partnership and share in Real Estate & Transfer of Property Laws the profits and losses of the group of companies by the terms of the partnership agreement.

Partnership Act, 1932

This Act, commonly known as the Partnership Act, 1932, was passed to establish and amend the law relating to partnerships. It covers the whole of Pakistan. The Act defines the characteristics of a partnership and prescribes how a partnership may be registered and dissolved. It also describes the relationship between partners and with third parties, the risks to the partnership and the partners, and the status of minors as partners.

In Pakistan, partnerships (except for banking partnerships) are generally limited to 20 partners. The share of a partner cannot be changed without the prior consent of the other partners. However, a partner's right to a share of the partnership income may be acquired by another person in trust.

Taxation

Partnerships in Pakistan are characterized by their taxation, and are classified as:

  •  Registered companies
  • Unregistered companies

The income of a registered company is subject to super tax before being passed on to the partners. The personal income of shareholders is also subject to income tax at the standard rate. In the case of unregistered corporations, income tax is levied on the income of the corporation and the shareholders do not pay any portion of the distribution received by the unregistered corporation.

How is the existence of a partnership determined?

In determining whether a partnership exists or whether a person is a member of a partnership, one must consider the actual relationship between the partnerships as shown by all the material facts. The fact that the profits or gross income of a property may be shared by persons who have a common or joint interest in that property does not make them partners.              

The sharing of profits of a partnership, or the acquisition of profits that are dependent on the creation of profits or that vary with the profits of the partnership, does not in itself make an individual a partner of a person interested in the business, and in particular a person Property Gift Deed Pakistan carrying on or engaged in business on behalf of the lender in consideration of an employee or agent a pension for the widow or children of a retired member; or as consideration for the transfer of the business by the former owner or co-owner of the business, or any gift that does not in itself make the recipient a partner in the person carrying on the business.
