What It Costs to Close a Dormant LLP, and What It Costs Not To

An LLP you stopped using three years ago is not sitting quietly. Form 8 and Form 11 remained due every year, and the late fee is ₹100 per day per form with no cap. Two overdue years is four forms. Do the multiplication before you decide to leave it alone for another year.

Government fee — paid by you at actuals

Form 24 carries a government fee of ₹500. On top of that sit the normal and additional fees on every overdue Form 8 and Form 11 that has to be filed before the strike off can proceed, at ₹100 per day per form with no upper limit. CCFS-2026 does NOT cover LLPs — the MCA scheme running to 31 August 2026 applies to companies under the Companies Act, so LLP filings carry the full additional fee with no relief. All government charges are paid at actuals.

Every price above is a professional fee, excluding GST and government charges. 50% on delivery.

All fees and charges listed are indicative only and do not constitute a binding offer. Final amounts may vary depending on the volume of work and the complexity involved.

How it works

Step 1

Price the backlog first

We quote the overdue filings before the closure, so you decide with the full number in front of you rather than discovering it halfway through.

Step 2

Clear Form 8 and Form 11

Rule 37(1A) requires overdue returns filed up to the end of the financial year in which the LLP ceased business. You cannot skip to Form 24.

Step 3

Assemble the file fast

The statement of account showing nil assets and liabilities must be CA certified and made up to a date not earlier than 30 days before the application. That rule is strict — if assembling takes six weeks, it gets redone.

Step 4

File Form 24

With consent of all partners, the affidavit and indemnity, and follow-up with the Registrar through to strike off.

Why CorporateWalla®?

The meter runs whether you use it or not

₹100 per day per form, no cap, on both Form 8 and Form 11 every year. A dormant LLP is an accruing liability, not a dormant one.

One year of inactivity is enough

Rule 37 allows strike off on Form 24 where the LLP has not carried on business for one year or more, or has not commenced business since incorporation. All partners must consent.

No amnesty exists for LLPs

CCFS-2026 covers companies under the Companies Act, not LLPs. If someone told you otherwise, they read a page about companies. There is no cheap month coming.

The backlog condition stops most applications

Rule 37(1A) requires overdue returns up to the year the LLP ceased business. This is where closures stall, and it is why we quote the backlog before the closure.

The 30-day rule on the statement

The CA-certified statement of account must be made up to a date not earlier than 30 days before the application. Slow document collection means redoing it.

Liabilities rule out Form 24 entirely

Strike off is for a dormant LLP with no assets and no liabilities, because the affidavit and indemnity cannot honestly be given otherwise. Real liabilities mean winding up with a liquidator.
