Correct Answer: Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is False


Solution : The partnership Act of 1932 specifies the minimum and maximum number of partners, while the Company Act of 2013 specifies the maximum. Section 464 of the Companies Act of 2013 empowers the central government to prescribe a maximum number of partners of up to 50. The central government then mandated a maximum of 50 partners per company rule (Miscellaneous Rules, 2014

Hence the correct answer is option 3.
