it is settled law that ordinarily on the death of a partner, the partnership firm is automatically dissolved vide section 42 of the Indian Partnership Act.

Thank u so much Sir, u r always a great help then whether the pan of the firm will be non existent or can a new partner be added to the same firm

Yes, the firm gets automatically dissolved and PAN has to be surrendered. Existing partner has to complete the formalities of any tax liability till the time of dissolution. He can form second partnership firm may be under same banner, if permitted, may transfer his original assets to new firm and apply for new PAN no.
