Does partnership firm has a separate legal entity? Give reason in support of your answer.

No, a partnership firm does not have a separate legal entity. This is because the partners’ private assets can be utilized to set off firm’s obligations and liabilities, in case the firm is unable to discharge its liabilities from business assets.
