What is LLP?

A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a modern business structure that merges the benefits of a partnership with the security of a company. Here is what sets LLPs apart:

  • Legal Entity: Like a company, an LLP is a separate legal entity. It can enter into contracts, own property, and take legal actions independently.
  • Limited Liability: Partners are only liable for their own actions and contributions, keeping their personal assets safe.
  • Operational Flexibility: LLPs offer the ease of partnership operations with the added advantages of a corporate structure.

Introduced in India in 2008 under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, LLPs are a versatile option for businesses of all sizes.

Eligibility and Requirements for Registration

To register an LLP in India, you need to meet the following criteria:

  • Minimum 2 Partners An LLP must have at least two partners, with no maximum limit.
  • Designated Partners At least two designated partners must be individuals, and one must be an Indian resident.
  • Authorized Capital An LLP should have a minimum authorized capital of Rs. 1 lakh.
  • Corporate Partners If a corporate body is involved, a natural person must represent it.
