DESAI C.J. - I agree with the answer proposed by my brother, Brijlal Gupta. There is no doubt whatsoever that the latter partnership, which is sought to be registered, is a partnership consisting of 3 individuals, 3 Hindu undivided families consisting of 4 adult coparceners and 6 firms consisting of 14 partners. The partnership deed was signed by the 3 individual, 3 kartas of Hindu undivided families and 6 persons acting as representatives or agents of the firms, that is, by 12 persons.
