  • Only up to two master detail relationships are allowed for an object.
  • You can have only Upto three levels of custom detail levels. 
  • We can't create a Master-detail relationship when the custom object already contains data.
  • Each object is allowed to have one or two masters or up to 8 details.
  • After converting a lookup field into Master-detail relationship, test your custom reports, whether they are usable or not. Sometimes upon converting, the custom reports can become unusable due to different standard report types.

Hi Manogna,
Each custom object can have up to two master-detail relationships and many lookup relationships. 
Each relationship is included in the maximum number of custom fields allowed.
