LLP Settlement Scheme, 2020

About  Our Service Page

What is LLP Settlement Scheme, 2020?  

The LLP Settlement Scheme, 2020 was introduced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) to help Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) that missed their filing deadlines. Under this scheme, LLPs can file their belated documents like Form 8, Form 11, etc., by paying a reduced additional fee instead of heavy penalties.

This scheme aimed to promote compliance among LLPs and give them a one-time opportunity to become legally active again. It covered all LLPs that had defaulted in filing mandatory forms till a specified period, allowing them to regularize their status with the Registrar of Companies (ROC).

Through this MCA LLP Scheme, partners could protect their business from legal consequences and strike-off actions due to non-compliance.
