I have a query regarding partnership act . What are consequences of death of a partner in a partnership of 5 people ? I hereby want to ask whether any written notice is required to be given by a partner to other partners intimating them of such change . Whether partners are legally bound to intimate registrar of such change in constitution ? and what is time limit ?
I look forward for your kind attention. Thanks in advance

The consequences depends on the instrument i.e. deed of partnership. If the deed says about dissolution of firm on death of a partner, it would happen so. If it says admission of deceased partner's legal heir it may be done so.
