LLP Registration
Online in India
Register your Limited Liability Partnership with India's most trusted compliance partner โ flexible structure, limited liability, low compliance cost. 100% online & CA-assisted.
What is an LLP?
A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a hybrid business structure that combines the best of both worlds โ the flexibility and simplicity of a partnership firm and the limited liability protection of a private limited company.
LLPs are governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, and regulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Each partner's liability is limited to their agreed contribution โ personal assets are fully protected from business debts and obligations of other partners.
Why do professionals prefer LLPs?
An LLP gives your business a separate legal identity and limited liability โ while keeping compliance requirements minimal and costs low. No mandatory audit below โน40 lakh turnover, no dividend distribution tax, and partners can join or leave without dissolving the entity.

CAs, lawyers, architects, consultants, and agencies seeking a formal structure.
SMEs & Small Businesses

Startups
