A suit of a partnership firm to enforce any type of rights of the partnership firm is not maintainable unless the partnership firm is registered under Section 69 of the Partnership Act before the filing of the suit

Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The bar under s.69 applies only to rights 'arising from a contract', so a "partnership firm can sue for enforcement of its statutory rights even if the partnership firm is not registered."; "An unregistered firm cannot sue for any rights, be they contractual or statutory, unless the partnership firm is first registered." and "Even if a suit is filed for enforcement of a contractual right by an unregistered firm, but such a suit can continue if the partnership firm is got registered during pendency of the suit." are wrong because statutory rights are outside the bar and registration during pendency does not cure a suit on a contractual right.
