Joint family property doctrine cannot shift partnership liabilities or tax assessment from a partner to the HUF. A partner's unilateral declaration converting his partnership share into joint family property is ineffective where that conversion would burden the HUF with partnership liabilities; the blending doctrine does not apply to assets that carry liabilities, partners remain jointly and severally liable for firm obligations, and such declarations must be ignored for tax assessment, with reviews of completed assessments to rectify any revenue loss.
