Conversion from Partnership to LLP

All you need to know

What is a Partnership Firm?

A Partnership is a business structure in which two or more individuals manage and operate a business in accordance with the terms and objectives set out in the Partnership Deed. It is owned, managed and controlled by an Association of People for profit. Partnerships firms are relatively easy to start and are prevalent amongst small and medium-sized businesses in the unorganized sectors. Partnership firms are created by drafting a Partnership deed amongst the Partners.

 

What is a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)?

Whereas a Limited Liability Partnership is a form of separate legal business entity that gives the benefits of limited liability but allows its members the flexibility of organizing their internal structure as a traditional partnership. It is governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. In LLP, unlike a company, the designated partner has a direct relationship between owner and management.

 

Prime reason why a concept of LLP has evolved is because of its simplicity in formation and easy maintenance. It helps owners also to limit their liabilities. This is the biggest advantage of an LLP over a traditional partnership firm.

 

Conversion of a Partnership Firm to an LLP

The Important condition to convert a partnership firm in to LLP is that it must be a registered partnership under Indian Partnership firm Act, 1962. If it is an unregistered partnership then normal course of the Process of an LLP registration will be followed.

 

Every LLP is required to have at least two Designated Partners who shall be individuals and at least one of them shall be a resident of India. The mutual rights and duties of partners shall be governed by the agreement between LLP and the partners. This Agreement would be known as “LLP Agreement”.
