Conversion of a private company to LLP

The LLP structure offers the advantages of both a partnership and a company. As a result, converting a company to an LLP provides the business with greater operational flexibility while maintaining the characteristics of being a separate legal entity and limited liability. In addition, the management and operations are directly in the hands of the LLP partner(s), unlike in a private company where they are with the director(s). An LLP is governed by the LLP Agreement executed by the partners and has fewer compliance requirements, making it easier to operate. It preserves the benefits of a partnership while providing security and credibility to a company. To convert a private limited company to an LLP, the necessary documents must be submitted through an online application for approval by the Ministry.


Benefits of converting Pvt. Ltd Company to LLP

Rewards and returns to partners

LLP partners receive various forms of returns, including remuneration, a share of the profits, and interest on their capital. Remuneration is paid to partners for their active participation, while the share of profits represents their portion of the profits generated by the business activities.

Independent liability

Individual partners in a business are protected from joint liability created by the wrongful business decisions or misconduct of other partners. This means that no partner is held liable for the unauthorized actions of their fellow partners.

Less Statutory Compliance

An LLP has fewer compliance requirements than a Private Limited Company. It is not necessary for an LLP to maintain statutory records and registers, and the requirement for a statutory audit is also relaxed.

Operational Flexibility

The LLP partners are directly involved in the daily operations and management of the business. In contrast to a company, an LLP is managed through a mutual agreement among its partners known as the LLP Agreement.
