Question : Assertion (A):  If the partnership deed does not address the payment of interest, the interest on loans to partners is charged at a rate of 6% per year.
Reason (R): In the absence of Partnership Deed, provisions of the Partnership Act, 1932 apply. Therefore, 6% annual interest should be added to the loan to the partner. If not, interest is permitted at the agreed-upon rate.
