* Partnership Deed- Partnership deed is a written legal document that contains an agreement made between two individuals who have the intention of doing business with each other and share profits and losses.

* Profit sharing in absence of agreement- Profits and losses are shared equally among the partners int he absence of any agreement.

* Interest On drawings- No interest is to be charged on the drawings made by the partners, if there is no mention in the Deed.

* Interest on partner's loan- If the Partnership Deed does not specify the rate of interest payable on loan by a partner, the rate at which interest on loan will be paid is 6 percent on any loan advanced by the partner to the firm. Interest on loan will be paid to the partners even if the firm incurs a loss.
