LLP registration process in India

LLP registration process includes following steps:

  • Get a digital signature (DSC)

The documents of the registration of LLP are to be filed online and are required to be digitally signed. Hence, before registering your LLP, you must apply for the digital signature of the designated partners of the proposed LLP.

  • Apply for the Director Identification Number (DIN)

Once you get the DSC, you will have to apply for the DIN of all the designated partners of the proposed LLP.

  • Get the name of the company approved through ‘Reserve your Unique Name’ service (RUN)

To get a name for LLP is the most important step. LLP-RUN (Limited Liability Partnership – Reserve Unique Name) is filed for the reservation of name of proposed LLP.

  • Incorporation of LLP (Form FiLLiP)- including DIN Application & PAN and TAN Application

The next step would be to file the form for incorporation of LLP  i.e. FiLLiP (Form for incorporation of Limited Liability Partnership) which shall be filed with the Registrar who has a jurisdiction over the state in which the registered office of the LLP is situated. This form also provides for applying for allotment of DPIN if an individual who is to be appointed as a designated partner does not have a DPIN or DIN. Also, PAN and TAN Application can now be applied with the Incorporation Form itself (with the introduction of LLP (Second Amendment) Rules, 2022).

  • File ‘Limited Liability Partnership Agreement’

Once your name is reserved, LLP agreement which governs the mutual rights and duties amongst the partners and also between the LLP and its partners, must be prepared and filed online. The LLP agreement is to be filed in Form 3. The LLP Agreement has to be printed on Stamp Paper. The value of Stamp Paper is different for every state.
