D Correct answer
Explanation

Under the Indian Partnership Act, in the absence of any agreement to the contrary, partners share profits equally regardless of their capital contributions. This is a default rule meant to ensure equality among partners. The share in capital ratio or age-based distribution would only apply if explicitly agreed upon by partners.
