Very good effort sir, new members doing hard work to add inputs instead of I agree and I also agree or well advised etc etc.,
Please just add one more paragraph in your draft agreement of AOP about a) bank accounts, its authority and b) remedy for disputes mostly arbitration.

there is no law which regulates Association of persons. Also, there is no formal procedure to create any association of person.
AoA means an association where several persons come together to act for a specific purpose.
As per IT Act its a personbut for contract act, thisis not a legal entity

Yes but when some thing is in black and white that is written than it can regulate relations between them.

then it would be an agreement between them. AoA when registered as per the Society's Registration act becomes a society. When drawn as per the Partnership Act, becomes a firm.
AoP definition has been laid down by the SC in many of its rulings..I don't remember them but Ill try to write down the same as soon as possible.
