In section 61, for the words “may send intimation thereof to the Registrar, who shall”, substitute the following words, namely- “shall send intimation thereof to the Registrar, within a period of 90 days from the date of such discontinuance or, as the case may be, from the date on which the firm begins to carry on business at such place. The Registrar shall then.”
