Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an LLP and a partnership firm?

An LLP is a separate legal entity with limited liability for partners and is registered with the MCA; a partnership firm's partners have unlimited liability and it is registered with the State Registrar of Firms.

When must the LLP agreement be filed?

In Form 3 within 30 days of incorporation; delay attracts an additional fee of ₹100 per day.

Is registration of a partnership firm compulsory?

Not strictly, but an unregistered firm cannot sue third parties or its partners to enforce contractual rights, so registration is advisable.

How many partners does an LLP need?

At least two designated partners, at least one of whom is resident in India.
