INTRODUCTION

Joint Hindu Family Business is a form of commercial organization where a business is owned by the members of a Hindu Family living jointly.

When the business continues from one generation to another in a Hindu family it becomes a Joint Hindu Family Business.

It is a business where a person becomes a member only by virtue of birth in the Hindu family.

The Joint Hindu Family Business is a distinct form of business organization existing only in India.

It is an enlarged form of sole trading concern.

The business comes into existence by the operation of the Hindu Law.

The family is headed by a patriarch, usually the oldest male called "Karta", who makes decisions on economic and social matters on behalf of the entire family and has unlimited liability.

The inheritors of the Joint Hindu Family Business are called Coparceners·. Their liability is limited.

All money goes to the common pool and all property is held jointly.

There are several schools of Hindu Law, such Mitakshara, the Dayabhaga, the Murumakkattayam, the Aliyasanthana etc.

Broadly, Mitakshara and Dayabhaga systems of laws are very common. Family ties are given more importance than marital ties.

    Legal systems can be split between civil law and common law systems. The term "civil law" referring to a legal system should not be confused with "civil law" as a group of legal subjects distinct from criminal or public law. A third type of legal system—accepted by some countries without separation of church and state—is religious law, based on scriptures. The specific system that a country is ruled by is often determined by its history, connections with other countries, or its adherence to international standards. The sources that jurisdictions adopt as authoritatively binding are the defining features of any legal system. Yet classification is a matter of form rather than substance, since similar rules often prevail.…

    In the absence of any such regulation, the state could not insist on his duties of maintaining his wife and children nor could it grant the claim of the wife and children in his acquisitions. The right to maintenance and half of the self-acquired property of the husband/father dying intestate was a great relief to the women and children. The Nair Regulation of 1925 (Travancore) amended the law of marriage, sucession and family management including provision for partition in marumakkathayam tharawads. Marriages were always matrilocal and the husband and wife lived in their respective homes even after marriage. They are ‘duo-local’ (Kapadia 336). The wife and husband did not rely on each other for economic support. The husband-wife relationship was not supported by familial obligations either (Alexander…
