Explain the concept of 'Partner by Holding Out' as provided under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932. Under what circumstances can a person be held liable as a partner by holding out?
Suggested Answer and Working Notes:
Promisor himself: If there is something in the contract to show that it was the intention of the parties that the promise should be performed by the promisor himself, such promise must be performed by the promisor. This means contracts which involve the exercise of personal skill or diligence, or which are founded on personal confidence between the parties must be performed by the promisor himself.
