Overview
What is an LLP?
A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a hybrid business structure that combines the flexibility of a partnership with the limited liability protection of a company. Governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, it is a separate legal entity distinct from its partners.
LLPs are highly popular among professionals like lawyers, chartered accountants, architects, and consultants, as well as service-based businesses. Unlike a company, there is no requirement for minimum capital, board meetings, or complex annual compliance formalities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before applying for LLP Registration.

How many partners are required for LLP registration?
A minimum of 2 designated partners are required to form an LLP. There is no maximum limit on the number of partners. At least one designated partner must be a resident Indian.
Is there a minimum capital requirement for LLP?
No. There is no minimum capital contribution requirement for LLP registration in India. Partners can agree to any capital contribution in the LLP Agreement.
What is the DPIN number in LLP?
DPIN (Designated Partner Identification Number) is a unique 8-digit number allotted by the MCA to every designated partner of an LLP. It is similar to DIN for company directors.
Can a company or another LLP be a partner in an LLP?
Yes. A body corporate (including a company or another LLP) can be a partner in an LLP. However, at least one of the designated partners must be an individual, and at least one must be a resident Indian.
