    📚

    Basics

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    What is LLP compliance?+

    LLP compliance means the annual ROC, income-tax, accounting and partner-record filings required after a Limited Liability Partnership is incorporated.

    Is LLP compliance mandatory every year?+

    Yes. Every LLP must complete annual filings even if there is no business activity, revenue or profit during the year.

    Which annual ROC forms are important for LLPs?+

    The two core annual ROC filings are LLP Form 11 for annual return and LLP Form 8 for statement of account and solvency.

    Does a dormant or inactive LLP need filing?+

    Yes. Unless the LLP is formally closed or has a permitted status under law, annual filings should not be ignored.

    Who is responsible for LLP compliance?+

    Designated partners are primarily responsible for ensuring that the LLP maintains books, files returns and meets statutory deadlines.

    🗂️

    Form 11

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    What is LLP Form 11?+

    Form 11 is the annual return of an LLP. It captures partner details, designated partner details, contribution and changes during the financial year.

    What is the due date of LLP Form 11?+

    Form 11 is generally due within 60 days from the close of the financial year, which makes 30 May the usual due date.

    Is Form 11 required if there were no changes in partners?+

    Yes. Form 11 is still required even when there are no partner changes or business transactions.

    What information is needed for Form 11?+

    LLPIN, partner details, contribution, changes in partners, designated partner information and relevant certifications are typically needed.

    Can Form 11 be filed before completing accounts?+

    Form 11 is mainly a partner and annual-return filing, but books and partner contribution records should still be reconciled before filing.

    📊

    Form 8

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    What is LLP Form 8?+

    Form 8 is the Statement of Account and Solvency. It contains the solvency declaration and financial details of the LLP.

    What is the due date of LLP Form 8?+

    Form 8 is generally due within 30 days from the end of six months after the financial year, which makes 30 October the usual due date.

    Does Form 8 need financial statements?+

    Yes. Form 8 is linked to accounts and solvency, so books, bank records and financial statements should be ready.

    Who signs LLP Form 8?+

    Form 8 is signed by designated partners and may require certification depending on the LLP’s turnover, contribution and applicable rules.

    Can Form 8 be filed without bank reconciliation?+

    It is not advisable. Bank reconciliation helps avoid wrong balances, mismatch with income tax records and later compliance issues.

    💰

    Income Tax

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    Does an LLP need to file income tax return?+

    Yes. LLPs file income-tax return in ITR-5, whether or not tax is payable.

    What is the income-tax return due date for LLP?+

    The due date depends on whether audit is applicable. For many non-audit LLPs it is usually 31 July, while audit cases follow the tax audit timeline.

    Is tax audit mandatory for every LLP?+

    No. Tax audit depends on turnover, profession receipts, cash transaction rules and other Income-tax Act conditions.

    Does LLP pay tax at partner level or LLP level?+

    The LLP is taxed as a separate entity. Partners may also have tax implications for remuneration, interest or profit share as per law.

    Can losses be carried forward if return is filed late?+

    Late filing can affect certain loss carry-forward benefits. Timely income-tax filing is important even when the LLP has loss.

    📒

    Books & Audit

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    Does an LLP need to maintain books of account?+

    Yes. LLPs should maintain proper books, invoices, bank records, expense proofs, partner contribution records and statutory documents.

    Is statutory audit required for every LLP?+

    Audit is generally required when turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh or contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh, subject to current LLP rules.

    What records should be kept ready for LLP annual compliance?+

    Bank statements, invoices, expense bills, loan records, partner capital details, GST/TDS data, fixed asset details and previous filings should be kept ready.

    Do small LLPs need accounting if there is no business?+

    Yes. Even nil or low-activity LLPs should keep basic books and supporting records for filing and future closure or due diligence.

    Can CompanyJi prepare LLP books and filings together?+

    Yes. CompanyJi can help with bookkeeping review, financial statement preparation, Form 11, Form 8 and income-tax return filing.

    ⚠️

    Penalties

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    What happens if LLP Form 11 or Form 8 is filed late?+

    Late filing attracts additional fees on a daily basis and can become expensive if ignored for months or years.

    Is there a cap on LLP late filing fees?+

    Late fee treatment can be strict and may not feel proportionate for small LLPs, so pending forms should be handled early.

    Can an LLP file pending returns for earlier years?+

    Yes. Pending LLP forms can usually be filed year-wise with applicable additional fees and documentation.

    Can non-compliance block closure of LLP?+

    Yes. An LLP usually needs to clear pending annual filings before closure or strike-off steps can be completed.

    Can partners face consequences for LLP non-compliance?+

    Designated partners may face notices, penalties and difficulty with future filings if compliance is ignored.

    🧾

    GST & TDS

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    Is GST return filing part of LLP compliance?+

    GST compliance is separate from ROC annual filing but should be reviewed together because turnover and sales data must match records.

    Does every LLP need GST registration?+

    No. GST depends on turnover, place of supply, nature of services or goods, e-commerce and other GST rules.

    Does LLP need TDS compliance?+

    TDS may apply if the LLP makes payments such as salary, professional fees, rent, contractor payments or interest beyond applicable limits.

    Can GST data affect LLP annual filing?+

    Yes. GST turnover, books and income-tax return should be reconciled to avoid notices or mismatch issues.

    Should GST and ROC filing be handled by the same team?+

    It is often better because coordinated filings reduce mismatch between books, GST returns, Form 8 and income-tax return.

    🔁

    Changes & Event Filings

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    Is partner change covered in annual compliance?+

    Annual return reports the position, but partner admission, resignation or change usually requires separate event-based LLP filings.

    What if registered office changed during the year?+

    Registered office change must be filed separately in the relevant LLP form. Annual filing alone does not complete that change.

    What if the LLP agreement changed?+

    Changes in LLP agreement generally require filing the prescribed form with the Registrar within the applicable time.

    Are designated partner KYC filings required?+

    Designated partners holding DIN may need DIN KYC compliance such as DIR-3 KYC, depending on MCA requirements.

    Can annual compliance fix old incorrect filings?+

    Not always. Incorrect past filings may need correction, resubmission, adjudication or professional review depending on the issue.

    CompanyJi Support

    5 practical questions for LLP owners and designated partners.

    What does CompanyJi check before LLP filing?+

    We review LLP master data, last filings, partner details, books status, bank records, GST/TDS status, income-tax requirements and pending forms.

    Can CompanyJi handle nil LLP annual filing?+

    Yes. Nil or no-activity LLP filings can be handled with proper bank statements, partner confirmation and basic financial records.

    How long does LLP annual compliance take?+

    If records are ready, routine LLP annual filing can often be completed quickly. Pending years, audit issues or mismatches need more time.

    What details should I share for quotation?+

    Share LLP name or LLPIN, financial year, whether books are ready, GST/TDS status, turnover, partner changes and pending filing years.

    Can CompanyJi handle multiple years of pending LLP compliance?+
