register your LLP in 7–10 days.

What is an LLP?

A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a business structure registered under the LLP Act, 2008, that combines the limited liability of a company with the operational flexibility of a partnership. Partners are liable only up to their agreed contribution, and the LLP is a separate legal entity from its partners.

How many partners does an LLP need?

A minimum of 2 partners, with no upper limit. At least 2 partners must be Designated Partners responsible for compliance, and at least one Designated Partner must be a resident of India.

Is LLP better than Private Limited for tax?

An LLP's profit is taxed once at the LLP level (30% flat, plus surcharge and cess where applicable) with no further dividend distribution tax when profit share reaches partners — unlike a Private Limited company, where profit is taxed at the company level and dividends may attract tax again in the shareholder's hands. This makes LLP tax-efficient for profit-distributing service businesses, though it depends on your specific structure.

Can an LLP raise funding from investors?

LLPs can take on partners and borrow, but most VCs and angel investors prefer investing in a Private Limited company because of standardised equity structures and simpler cap table management. If external equity funding is part of your plan, Private Limited is usually the better fit.
