A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) blends the operational flexibility of a traditional partnership with the limited liability protection of a company. Introduced under the LLP Act, 2008, it has become the structure of choice for professionals, consultants, service firms, and family-run businesses that want simplicity, tax efficiency, and legal protection — without the heavier compliance of a Private Limited Company.
In an LLP, partners’ personal assets remain protected from business liabilities, and no partner is held accountable for another partner’s misconduct. It is a separate legal entity with perpetual succession, making it far more credible and resilient than a regular partnership firm.
We help entrepreneurs, consultants, and firms incorporate their LLP end-to-end — from name reservation and DIN/DSC to LLP agreement drafting, PAN/TAN, GST, and ongoing compliance — ensuring a clean, fully compliant, and future-ready setup.

FAQs on LLP Registration
What is a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)?
An LLP is a hybrid business structure combining features of a partnership and a company. It provides limited liability to its partners, separate legal identity, and perpetual succession, while retaining the operational flexibility of a traditional partnership. LLPs are governed by the LLP Act, 2008.
How many partners are required to form an LLP?
An LLP requires a minimum of 2 designated partners, with no maximum limit. At least one designated partner must be a resident of India. Partners can be individuals or corporate bodies.
Is there any minimum capital requirement?
No. There is no minimum capital contribution required to form an LLP. Partners can contribute any amount in cash or kind, as agreed in the LLP Agreement.
How long does LLP incorporation take?
With complete documents and smooth name approval, LLP incorporation is typically completed within 7 to 10 working days through the FiLLiP process on the MCA portal.
Is statutory audit mandatory for LLPs?
Statutory audit is mandatory only if the LLP’s annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh or contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh. Smaller LLPs below these thresholds are exempt — a major compliance advantage over Private Limited Companies.
Can an LLP raise equity funding from investors?
No. An LLP cannot issue shares or ESOPs. If you plan to raise venture capital, angel investment, or private equity, a Private Limited Company is a more suitable structure. LLPs can, however, admit new partners and accept capital contributions.
Can an existing partnership firm convert to an LLP?
Yes. A traditional partnership firm, unlisted private company, or unlisted public company can be converted into an LLP through the prescribed conversion process under the LLP Act, 2008, subject to applicable conditions.
How is an LLP taxed?
LLPs are taxed at a flat rate of 30% on profits, plus applicable surcharge and cess. A key advantage is that profit distributed to partners is not taxed again in their hands, and LLPs are not subject to Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT).
