1. I am an individual who runs a sole proprietorship business by myself. Along with this, I am also the managing partner in a partnership firm.
I have applied for Udyam registration of my proprietary business using my aadhaar number.
Now when I try to apply for registration of my partnership firm using my same aadhaar number, it says only one registration can be obtained for one aadhaar number.
There are only two partners in the firm & since both of us have proprietary businesses, we have used our aadhaar numbers for obtaining Udyam registration of our respective businesses.
Please guide us on how to proceed further for registering our partnership firm under Udyog, using my aadhaar number, which is already used for my sole proprietary concern.
