STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

Schedule I of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932 (Central Act 9 of 1932)

envisages the maximum fees payable in respect of various documents under the

said Act. The existing rates of fees are ranging from fifty paise to fifteen rupees,

which has come into force in the year 1973, vide the Indian Partnership (Kerala

Amendment) Act, 1973 (25 of 1973).

Since the fees specified in Schedule I of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932

are very meagre, Government of Kerala have decided to enhance the maximum

fee for filing various documents under the said Act.

The present proposal is to enhance the maximum fee ranging from rupees

fifty to rupees three hundred for filing various documents, by amending

Schedule I of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932.

The Bill seeks to achieve the above objects.

FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM

The Bill, if enacted and brought into operation, would not involve any

additional expenditure from the Consolidated Fund of the State.

OOMMEN CHANDY.
