Frequently Asked Questions

What is LLP?

An LLP is a new form of body corporate introduced in India through the LLP Act, 2008. An LLP in India is an advancement over the existing partnership firm with advantages of corporate structure such as the limitation on the liability of the partners. An LLP is considered as a separate legal entity, perpetual succession, with the liability of partners limited to the capital being contributed by them.
