Only (A) is correct. Explanation: A partnership firm can have a maximum of 50 partners, but this limit is not prescribed in the Partnership Act, 1932. Instead, it is specified under Rule 10 of the Companies (Miscellaneous) Rules, 2014, issued under the Companies Act, not the Partnership Act. Therefore, the assertion is correct, but the reason is incorrect.
