Overview
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) registration is a popular choice for startups and small businesses, blending the features of a partnership and a private company. One key advantage is that LLPs require no minimum capital, making them accessible to new entrepreneurs. The process begins with selecting a unique business name, which is checked for availability using the RUN-LLP service on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) portal.
To officially register, applicants must submit Form FiLLiP through the MCA. This form includes the LLP’s proposed name, registered office address, and partner details. Each partner needs either a Director Identification Number (DIN) or Designated Partner Identification Number (DPIN), along with a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) to sign electronic documents. Required documents include identification and address proof for partners, as well as evidence of the registered office address.

Pre-Filing Requirements
Before filing for LLP incorporation, ensure the following requirements are met:
Name Reservation: Choose a unique name for the LLP and reserve it with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Name approval is crucial for registration of LLP.
Partnership Agreement: Draft an LLP agreement detailing roles, responsibilities, profit-sharing, and decision-making processes among partners.
Partner Identification: Obtain Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) for all partners involved in the LLP.
Registered Office: Provide proof of registered office address for the LLP.
Filing Process
Follow these steps to file for LLP incorporation:
Document Preparation: Prepare necessary documents including LLP agreement, identity proofs, address proofs, and consent of partners.
Form Submission: Fill and submit Form 2 to the ROC along with the required documents and fees.
Verification: ROC verifies documents and processes the application for LLP incorporation.
Certificate Issuance: Upon approval, ROC issues the Certificate of Incorporation, establishing the legal existence of the LLP.
Post-Filing Compliance
After LLP incorporation, ensure compliance with ongoing requirements:
LLP Agreement Registration: Register the LLP agreement with the ROC within 30 days of incorporation.
PAN and TAN Application: Apply for Permanent Account Number (PAN) and Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number (TAN) for the LLP.
Annual Compliance: File annual returns and maintain financial records as per LLP Act requirements.
Changes in LLP: Notify ROC of any changes in partners, addresses, or LLP agreements through prescribed forms.
Features of Limited Liability Partnership
A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) combines the benefits of a partnership and a company, offering flexibility in management with limited liability protection. It provides a separate legal identity, ensuring business continuity and credibility. Here are the key features of LLP:
Legal Status of LLPs
LLPs have a separate legal entity status, distinct from their partners, which allows them to own assets, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in their own name.
Flexibility in Management
LLPs offer flexibility in management structure and decision-making processes. Partners can choose to manage the LLP directly or appoint designated managers or committees for specific functions.
Perpetual Succession
LLPs have perpetual succession, meaning the LLP continues to exist even if partners change due to retirement, resignation, or death. The LLP’s existence is not affected by changes in its membership.
Taxation Benefits
LLPs are taxed as partnerships, with profits distributed to partners taxed at the individual level. This avoids the double taxation that occurs with corporate entities, where both the company and shareholders are taxed.
Liability Protection
LLP partners enjoy limited liability, meaning their personal assets are protected from the debts and liabilities of the LLP. Each partner is only liable to the extent of their agreed contribution to the LLP.
Minimal Compliance Requirements
Compared to companies, LLPs have fewer compliance requirements. They are not required to hold annual general meetings (AGMs) or maintain extensive statutory records, simplifying administrative burdens.
Ease of Transferability
LLP interests can be easily transferred, subject to the terms of the LLP agreement. This allows for changes in ownership and investment without disrupting the LLP’s operations.

Taxation of Limited Liability Partnerships
Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) are taxed differently from traditional corporations. Here’s an overview of LLP taxation:
LLPs are taxed as pass-through entities, similar to partnerships. This means that LLPs do not pay taxes at the entity level. Instead, profits or losses are passed through to the partners, who then report them on their individual income tax returns. The partners are taxed at their individual income tax rates applicable to their respective income brackets. LLPs are required to file an LLP Return of Income (Form ITR-5) with the Income Tax Department annually. This form includes details of income, deductions, and other financial information relevant to the LLP’s tax liabilities. LLPs may also be subject to other tax compliances depending on their activities and turnover.
