Whether sister was also a partner in the firm? If so, the firm would be dissolved on the demise of one partner and can be reconstituted. The share of deceased partner would go to his/her legal heirs.

Sir --You have not answered my point.
The deceased sister was also a partner.
The point is that
1. Being an unregistered firm what is the
implication ?
DO the legal heirs inderit a share of the property or do they get only the share of the
networth of the Firm ?
