Disadvantages of HUF |
| Answer» Disadvantages of the HUF\tNo outside members other than family members can be introduced to the HUF. This makes it very difficult to get additional capital from the\xa0market. With limited capital, the chances of expansion are very low. It limits the\xa0scope of the business.\tWhile the Karta has all the power he also has the burden of unlimited liability. This may make him overly cautious and timid in his business dealings. In turn, the business could suffer. Another factor is that he may even be held responsible for the actions of other members.\tAlso, the absolute dominance of the Karta overall business and financial decisions make cause conflict among the HUF. His decisions and business acumen may be questioned by other members, and cause issues within the HUF.\tAnother issue may be that the Karta may not be the most qualified person to lead the\xa0business. The position is given to the senior most family member, whether he is the most qualified or not is not taken into consideration. | |
