Explanation:

- Karta of a Hindu Joint Family: The Karta is the manager of a Hindu joint family and can legally represent the family in transactions, including giving a discharge under Section 7 of the Limitation Act.

- Partner of a Firm: A partner can act on behalf of the firm in legal matters, including discharges. This is because the acts of a partner bind the firm as per partnership principles.

- Option 3: Both the Karta and a partner are authorized to give discharges as per the Limitation Act, as they can legally represent their respective entities.

- Option 4: Only (b) suggests only a partner can do so, which is not entirely correct.

The correct answer is:

Option 3: Both (a) and (b).
