None of the above.
Correct Answer:
Partnership deed
Explanation:
Partnership is an agreement between persons to carry on a business, entered into either orally or in writing. It is always desirable to have a written agreement so as to avoid misunderstandings and unnecessary litigations in future. When the agreement is in written form, it is called a 'Partnership Deed'. It must be duly signed by the partners, stamped and registered. Any alteration in one partnership deed can be made with the mutual consent of all the partners.
