Dear kelly,

A partnership firm can borrow money from individuals unless there is a restriction clause in the partnership deed.

A firm can borrow money from individuals for meeting its financial requirements, BUT it cannot borrow to LEND money like an NBFC or accept deposits for CHIT FUND or other finance related activities.
