State Act
Section 50. Liability of firms
CHHATTISGARH COMMERCIAL TAX ACT 1994
This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by the Madhya Pradesh Vat Act, 2002 (No. 20 of 2002), s.72, as printed in the Madhya Pradesh copy of that Act: "The Madhya Pradesh Vanijyik Kar Adhiniyam 1994 (No.5 of 1995) shall stand repealed on the date of coming into force of this Act"; it may still apply to matters that began before then.
Sec. 50 : Liability of firms Notwithstanding any contract to the contrary, where any firm is liable to pay tax under this Act, the firm and each of the partners of the firm shall be jointly and severally liable for such payment : Provided that where any such partner retires from the firm, he shall be liable to pay the tax, interest and the penalty, if any remaining unpaid at the time of his retirement and any tax due upto the date of retirement though un-assessed on that date.
