Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Registration

Setting up an LLP under the LLP Act, 2008, with a properly drafted LLP agreement so profit-sharing, capital contribution and partner responsibilities are unambiguous from the start.

Quick answer

An LLP requires a minimum of two designated partners, at least one of whom must be resident in India, and has no minimum capital requirement. Registration is done through the FiLLiP form with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, followed by execution and filing of the LLP agreement within thirty days of incorporation, which fixes the rights, duties and profit-sharing ratio of the partners.

Why choose us

Why LLP disputes usually trace back to the agreement

What sets our approach apart.

An unclear agreement causes disputes at exit, not entry

Most LLP disputes surface when a partner wants to leave or bring in a new partner, which is exactly when a vague agreement creates the most damage.

Form 3 has a hard filing deadline

Missing the thirty-day window to file the LLP agreement attracts additional fees that compound with delay.

Form 8 and Form 11 are due even with no activity

LLPs with zero turnover still have to file annual returns and financial statements, and penalties accrue per day of delay.
