the leasehold rights in the name of the firm shall remains in name of the firm even after introduction of new partner with major share in the firm therefore, according to me, introduction of new partner with major share does not amount to transfer of leasehold rights of the firm. firm is a legal entity under transfer of property act and whatever rights/property belongs to firm shall always be considered as rights/property of the firm irrespective of the fact that there is some change in constitution of the firm.
