A contractor was a propritory firm registered under Commercial dept. During the pendency of the contract the propriter along with 2 others entered into a partnership deed. The deed is only notorised. It did not registered with the registrar of firm. After few days, another deed was made for retiring the original thereby leaving only two partners. The Partners authorised x( who is a partner but not the original propriter) for signing all documents.
The querry is Is it not necessary to register the deed with the registar of firms? Can the partnership firm get the benefit of the experience of the propritory firm for the purpose of getting tender(as the the new firm do not fulfil the experience condition of the NIT)?
