Overview 

Post incorporation of a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), certain compliance and procedural matters need to be completed to ensure the smooth functioning of the LLP. The overall compliance requirement for an LLP is less cumbersome when compared to the post-incorporation compliances required for a company. However, since LLP is also a separate artificial judicial person, care must be taken to ensure LLP compliances are being completed on time to avoid heavy penalty. In this article, we look at some of the major LLP Compliance performed post-incorporation.

Filing LLP Agreement

The LLP Agreement governs the rights and duties of partners and the LLP. After incorporation of an LLP, LLP Agreement must be filed with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs within 30 days. LLP agreement is mandatory for all LLPs and even in the absence of a specific LLP Agreement, execute the LLP Agreement, specifically excluding applicability of any or all paragraphs of Schedule I (default LLP agreement).

Failure to file LLP Agreement within 30 days of incorporation of an LLP attracts a heavy penalty of Rs.100 per day of default with no ceiling on the maximum fine. Hence, ensure to take care that the execution of LLP agreement is proper and filed within the due date.

Filing LLP Annual Return

LLPs in India must file its Annual Return within 60 days from the end of the close of the financial year and Statement of Account & Solvency within 30 days from the end of six months of the close of the financial year. Unlike Companies, LLPs mandatorily have to maintain their financial year, as of April 1st to March 31st. Therefore, LLP annual return is due on May 30th and the Statement of Account & Solvency is due on October 30th of each financial year. Care must be taken again to ensure LLP Annual Return is filed on time, as non-compliance attracts a penalty of Rs.100 per day of default with no ceiling. Know more about filing LLP annual return.
