Dear Sir / Madam,

A partner can be a partner in a total of 20 other registered partnerships as on date. Moreover, since there are no restrictions in the partnership deed to prevent the existing partners from to starting the same or a business similar in nature to the business of that of the disputed firm, the two partners can form and register a distinct separate partnership firm. Caution : The name of the new firm cannot be the same as the name of the disputed firm.

Regards,
