https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=272857 A partnership formed to conduct a licensed cloth business in the name of only one partner was treated as illegal because the licence was a personal privilege and the control order allowed business only by the named licensee. Even without an express prohibition on transfer, the statutory scheme was read as excluding an arrangement that effectively shared or diverted the licence rights, making the partnership void under Section 23 of the Contract Act. A suit for dissolution and accounts was also held not maintainable, because a court will not enforce rights arising from an unlawful partnership or aid recovery connected with business carried on in violation of licensing restrictions. en-us Fri, 05 Jul 1963 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 21 May 2018 16:34:51 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=272857 A partnership formed to conduct a licensed cloth business in the name of only one partner was treated as illegal because the licence was a personal privilege and the control order allowed business only by the named licensee.
