According to the Partnership Act, 1932, it is not mandatory to have Partnership deed in writing. However, it is a safe option to have it in writing as there are chances that the partners may have conflicts in the future that gives rise to dispute among the partners regarding the operations of the firm. A partnership deed that is documented helps in proper functioning of the firm and assists in avoiding any kind of disputes that may arise between partners of a firm in future. It also helps resolution of any kind of disputes as, a written partnership that is signed by all the partners is suitable for use as an evidence in the court of law.
