  • On the happening of certain contingencies
  • Dissolution by Court
  • Dissolution by Notice
  • Compulsory Dissolution
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Classify the type of firm
There are two kinds of partnership: a partnership at will and a partnership for a fixed term or venture. Here the firm has a definite purpose, so it is a fixed venture firm.

Step 2: Link the type to a dissolution mode
A fixed venture firm ends by itself once the term expires or the work is over. The law puts this under dissolution on the happening of certain contingencies.

Step 3: Rule out the rest
Court dissolution needs a court order and a ground. Notice dissolution is only for a firm at will. Compulsory dissolution is for insolvency of all partners or an unlawful business.

Step 4: Conclusion
The firm needs none of these, so the mode is the happening of a contingency, which is option 1.

Final Answer:
Option 1 is correct. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 1}} \]
