WHAT IS LLP REGISTRATION?
LLP Registration was introduced in India through the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2008. Although there were existing entities (Private Limited and Partnership), there was a need to have an entity that combines the advantages of a partnership firm and a company. Hence, a Limited Liability Partnership was introduced which offered easy maintenance and lesser compliance formalities.
Major advantage of an LLP Incorporation is that each partner in an LLP is not responsible or liable for the acts of other partners. An LLP also enjoys a limited liability status wherein only the capital invested in the business is at risk and not the personal assets of the partners. LLP in India incorporated as a separate legal entity and has a distinct entity separate from its partners.
Limited Liability Partnership registration process is easy with fewer compliance as compared to other business entities. Statutory audits are also exempted in an LLP till the turnover reaches forty lakh Rupees or contribution increases to twenty-five Lakh Rupees. The only downside of Limited Liability Partnership is that it cannot issue shares and is not preferred for raising funds from investors.
FEATURES
Limited Liability Of Partners
The liability of the partners of a limited liability partnership is restricted to the capital contributed in the LLP, limiting the business risk to the capital contribution and safeguarding personal assets of the partners.
Separate Legal Entity
A limited liability partnership registration is initiated under the Limited liability Partnership Act 2008 and hence holds a separate legal entity which is distinct from its Partners.
Less on compliances and formalities
An LLP involves lesser compliance burden vs other corporate entity forms. There is no statutory audit requirement up to a turnover of rupees forty lakh or until contribution increases beyond rupees twenty-five lakh.
Not Preferred by Investors
A Limited Liability Partnership is not preferred by investors for funding when compared with a company. This is primarily due to fewer compliances in LLP resulting in lesser trust, no provision of shares and other Instruments, and lack of regulatory division of responsibilities between directors and shareholders.
