D Correct answer
Explanation

Partners have rights to participate in business (Section 12(a)), access account books (Section 12(d)), and share profits (Section 13(b)). However, there is NO automatic right to receive remuneration/salary for working in the firm - this must be explicitly agreed upon. Unless the partnership deed specifies payment, a partner is NOT entitled to salary for services.
