partnership firm is not like companies. sometimes there are firms where a partner alone contributes capital and another partner takes care of the busniess without investing. in that case the partner who contributes the capital gets interest on capital which shall not exceed 12% as per act. a lower percentage may be specified in the partnership deed.
