LLP Compliance
Two annual forms on fixed dates, whether or not the LLP traded — and a per-day penalty with no ceiling if they are missed.
An LLP files Form 11, its annual return, by 30 May and Form 8, the statement of account and solvency, by 30 October each year — regardless of turnover or whether it carried on any business. Audit is required only where annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh or contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh. Late filing of either form attracts additional fees per day of delay with no upper limit, which is why dormant LLPs become expensive to revive.
What our LLP compliance service covers
Both annual forms, the tax return, and any changes during the year.
- Form 11 annual return, due 30 May
- Form 8 statement of account and solvency, due 30 October
- Income tax return and audit coordination where thresholds are crossed
- Form 3 for changes to the LLP agreement and contribution
- Form 4 for admission, resignation or change in designated partners
- DIR-3 KYC for designated partners holding a DIN or DPIN
What an LLP owes each year
Fewer forms than a company, but harder deadlines.
Form 11
The annual return covering partner details and contribution, due by 30 May for the financial year just ended.
Form 8
The statement of account and solvency, with a declaration on the LLP's ability to meet its liabilities, due by 30 October.
Income tax and audit
The income tax return, plus a tax audit where turnover crosses the Section 44AB threshold, on a calendar of its own.
Changes during the year
Form 3 and Form 4 filings within 30 days of any change in the agreement, contribution or partners.

A simple annual cycle, run on time.

Filing
Form 11 and Form 8 filed with the required certifications within their windows.
Tax and follow-up

Why LLP deadlines catch people out
What sets our approach apart.
The dates do not move with your year end
Form 11 and Form 8 are due on fixed calendar dates, not a number of days after a meeting, so there is no AGM to delay them.
Inactivity is not an exemption
An LLP with no transactions still files both forms, and the per-day fee applies equally to a nil filing.
Old defaults compound
Because the additional fee has no cap, LLPs left unfiled for several years often cost more to regularise than to close.
