In absence of your name in the partnership deed you seems to have no case though you can file a suit for declaration of the deed of partnership as null and void but in that circumstances too you have to put forth a cogent reason with prima facie case.

No case at all. Nothing can be done.

In case you have evidence of giving money to the partnership, you can file a money suit on the firm and its partners for repayment of the money along with interest.

How you can say u r a partner in that partnership firm, if ur name is not mentioned in the partnership deed. And who is the third partner in partnership deed to whom they r giving 25% share?

If ur name is not in partnership deed u can't claim any profit/money as parner of the firm, but if u have given money to the firm and u can prove it in court, in that case u can file suit for recovery against the partnership firm or the partners of the firm.
