as per "limited liability partnersip bill 2006":
1) simply put, partner is like shareholder and designated partner is like director.
2) admission/retirement etc. of partners will be decided in accordance with "limited liability partnership agreement" (simply like partnership agreement) entered into by all the partners at the time of creation of limited liability partnership.
3) this bill is in place to give partnershp firms a chance to operate like corporate while keeping some benefits of partnership like entry of new partner will be as per agreement, not like company where anyone can become share holder.
