Saugata das gupta its for ur reference and clarification:

Partnership is formed by an agreement. The agreement may be verbal or in writing or may be inferred from the conduct of the partners. To avoid future disputes and differences between the partners it is desirable to have a written agreement.

Yes it's mandatory yet useful in terms of Legal Aspects to mention the Business name, nature as well as address in the Partnership Deed. Its an important clause for the Partnership Deed.
