Dear Sir / Madam,

There is a good saying in English : "Before borrowing money from a friend, decide which you need most". Although there is another saying in English : "The more, the merrier"; it doesn't necessarily work well in business, simply because decision making gets "crippled". And in any business, you earn your share of income / profit as your benefit provided the business is successful. In my opinion, forming a limited Company by engaging a local Chartered Accountant is a better option.

Regards,
