The Supreme Court has quashed the law which debarred a partner of an unregistered firm in Maharashtra from filing a suit for dissolution of such a firm. The apex court also held as illegal the law prohibiting the partner to sue for accounts of the dissolved firm or realise properties of such dissolved firm, unless the duration of the firm was only six months or its capital was up to Rs 2,000.
"In our opinion sub-section 2A of section 69 (of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932) inserted by the Maharashtra Amendment violates Articles 14, 19(1)(g) and 300A of the Constitution of India," said a bench comprising Justice Markandey Katju and Justice GS Singhvi.
