about patnership

We have started a partnership firm last year. As one of my partner is not acting responsible and his act is causing loss to the firm, we would like to know whether can we expel him from the partnership. He is 50% partner while me and my wife are 20 % and 30% each

No, you cannot expel a pertner from a partnership firm. You can at the best dissolve the partnership.

However, there is an excpetion, if in the Partnership Agreement there is provision of expulsion. then it that case expulsion can be made in accordance with the partnership deed.
