Solution
The correct option is D Sub- partner
Sub-Partner - A Sub-Partner has no direct contact with the firm. He is only next to a partner.
When a partner agrees to share his share of profits in a partnership firm with an outsider, such an outsider is called sub-partner. Such sub-partner does not hold any rights against the firm nor liable for the debts of the firm, as he is in no way connected with the firm.
