Professional fee.
Extra Government charges, DSC and applicable stamp duty at actuals.
Professional fee. Extra Government charges and state-specific statutory charges at actuals unless specifically quoted.
The government fee is not the same as professional fees. MCA incorporation fees depend on contribution, while LLP Agreement stamp duty depends on the state.
| Cost component | How it works | Typical treatment |
|---|---|---|
| RUN-LLP name reservation | MCA fee for name reservation where used | Statutory fee |
| FiLLiP incorporation fee | Slab linked to total contribution | Statutory fee |
| DSC | Required for designated partners signing digitally | Per person |
| LLP Agreement / Form 3 | Agreement filing plus applicable state stamp duty | State + MCA dependent |
| Professional assistance | Advisory, drafting, filing and coordination | StartStartup package |
Government fees and stamp duty are variable. Final quotation should be calculated from the state, contribution, partner profile and selected service scope. We do not describe variable statutory charges as “free”.
The right structure depends on what you want to do after incorporation. LLPs work especially well for professional firms, consultancies, agencies, family businesses, joint ventures and profitable businesses where flexible partner arrangements matter.
We would rather tell you that a Private Limited Company may suit your funding plan than sell you an LLP that you have to restructure later.
Compare Private Limited Registration →A Limited Liability Partnership combines a separate legal identity and limited liability with a partnership-style internal arrangement.
The LLP is distinct from its partners and can own assets, enter contracts and conduct business in its own name.
Partner liability is generally linked to the LLP framework and agreed contribution, subject to statutory exceptions such as fraud.
The LLP Agreement can define profit sharing, decision rights, contributions, admission, retirement and other partner arrangements.
In most ordinary cases, the answer is straightforward — but the partner mix and residency details matter.
Answer these five questions before spending money on incorporation.
Will you raise equity from angels or VCs?
How will profit and decision rights work?
Do you expect ESOPs or frequent equity issuance?
Do you want a lighter corporate compliance model?
For the right business, LLP can be an excellent middle ground between a traditional partnership and a company.
Compared with a typical private company, LLP annual compliance is generally lighter and centred around the prescribed LLP filings.
Partners can agree on commercial arrangements rather than relying on a rigid shareholding model for every internal decision.
There is no statutory minimum capital requirement. Contribution can be planned according to the business and agreement.
Consultancies, agencies, design firms, professional practices and service businesses often find the LLP model practical.
The LLP has continuity as a legal entity even when partners change, subject to the LLP Agreement and applicable law.
An LLP can be eligible for DPIIT startup recognition if it satisfies the prevailing recognition criteria. Registration alone does not automatically create recognition.
Neither is universally better. Your growth plan decides which one is better for you.
| Factor | LLP | Private Limited |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum owners | 2 partners | 2 shareholders/directors |
| Ownership model | Partner contribution + agreement | Shares / shareholding |
| Limited liability | Yes, subject to law | Yes, subject to law |
| VC / angel equity funding | Not the standard structure | Strongly suited |
| ESOPs | Not the normal equity-share model | Standard mechanism available |
| Internal flexibility | High via LLP Agreement | More company-law driven |
| Ongoing compliance | Generally lighter | Generally heavier |
| Best fit | Professional/service & self-funded businesses | Scalable/funded businesses |

After incorporation, we help you understand the immediate next steps — bank account, GST where applicable, Udyam, licences and recurring compliance.
Exact requirements can change based on partner type, address, foreign participation and the application. We keep the checklist practical rather than asking for every possible document upfront.
Every LLP should understand its recurring obligations before it starts invoicing customers or taking on partners.
Annual Return filing within the prescribed timeline.
Statement of Account & Solvency and related filing requirements.
LLP tax filing and audit requirements depend on the applicable facts.
Partner, contribution, registered office and agreement changes can trigger filings.
