Another reason to consult advisors is to avoid tax surprises. If one partner contributes cash and another contributes intelligence

Whatever be the contribution of partners towards corpus funds, the question of income tax becomes applicable only the income derived by the partners from that business. As such, tax is to be paid by each partner to the extent of profit he receives.

Regarding sharing, it is up to you and your friend to decide upon the ratio of sharing the profit/loss. It could be 80-20, 70-30, 60-40 or 50-50 but let it be friendship-understanding.

In my opinion the share of profit should be equal. No income tax shall be payable by the partners on the share of profit receive from the firm. However, Remuneration and/or interest on capital shall be taxed in the hands of the partners. Since you are only investing in addition to share of profit and remuneration you should receive interest on capital.
