ONLINE LLP REGISTRATION FEES | LLP REGISTRATION DOCUMENTS



Limited Liability Partnership concept in India is introduced by way of Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. 




It combines the advantages of both the Company and Partnership into one. 


In an LLP one partner is not responsible or liable for another partner's misconduct or negligence.


In an LLP, all partners have limited liability. 


The partners have the right to manage the business directly. 


An LLP also limits the personal liability of a partner for the errors, omissions of the LLP's employees or other agents.


Limited Liability Partnership is managed as per the LLP Agreement, however in the absence of such agreement the LLP would be governed by the framework provided in Schedule 1 of Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008 which describes the matters relating to mutual rights and duties of partners of the LLP and of the limited liability partnership and its partners.




LLP has a separate legal entity, liable to the full extent of its assets, the liability of the partners would be limited to their agreed contribution in the LLP.
