The partnership deed, normally, contains a clause regarding payment of interest,the rate and method of calculating the same. If so, follow that method. If the appropriate information regarding the method of calculation of interest is not specifically mentioned in the instrument of partnership, it is a convention that the interest on current account is calculated on the outstanding daily balance.
