LLP registration in India is done online with the MCA's FiLLiP form, which incorporates the LLP and allots DPIN to new designated partners; the name can be reserved first through RUN-LLP or inside FiLLiP. You need at least two designated partners, one of them resident in India, and no minimum contribution. The government fee starts at ₹500 and rises with contribution, and the LLP agreement must be filed in Form 3 within 30 days of incorporation.
A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a separate legal entity registered under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. It combines a partnership-style operating structure with limited liability, subject to applicable law.
CorporateWalla assists with LLP name selection, documentation, MCA incorporation filing, LLP agreement requirements and relevant post-incorporation registrations.

CorporateWalla professional fees currently start from ₹6,299.
| Plan | Professional Fee | Indicative Delivery | Key Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | From ₹6,299 | 7–10 business days | Designated partner setup, DSC, LLP Agreement drafting, name approval, incorporation |
| Standard | Custom quote | 4–5 business days | Starter coverage with faster processing |
| Pro | Custom quote | 2–3 business days | Expanded assistance and faster processing |
| Total contribution of partners | FiLLiP incorporation fee | Normal fee for later forms (Form 3, 8, 11) |
|---|---|---|
| Up to ₹1 lakh | ₹500 | ₹50 |
| Above ₹1 lakh, up to ₹5 lakh | ₹2,000 | ₹100 |
| Above ₹5 lakh, up to ₹10 lakh | ₹4,000 | ₹150 |
| Above ₹10 lakh, up to ₹25 lakh | ₹5,000 | ₹200 |
| Above ₹25 lakh, up to ₹1 crore | ₹10,000 | ₹400 |
| Above ₹1 crore | ₹25,000 | ₹600 |
Add the name reservation fee if you use RUN-LLP, stamp duty on the LLP agreement at your state's rate, and DSCs for the designated partners. Worked example: two partners contributing ₹50,000 each (₹1,00,000 in total) pay ₹500 to the MCA for incorporation and ₹50 as the normal fee on Form 3. Raise the contribution to ₹6,00,000 and the incorporation fee becomes ₹4,000. Most small LLPs therefore start with a modest contribution and increase it later through Form 3.

| Filing | What it is | Due date |
|---|---|---|
| Form 3 | LLP agreement and any change to it | Within 30 days of incorporation (or of the change) |
| Form 11 | Annual return | 30 May (within 60 days of the financial year end) |
| Form 8 | Statement of Account and Solvency | 30 October (within 30 days from the end of six months of the financial year) |
| ITR-5 | Income-tax return | Per the income-tax due date for the year; later where tax audit applies |
| Audit of accounts | Required only where turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh and contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh | Before Form 8 is signed |
Late Form 3, 8 and 11 attract an additional fee that grows with the delay, on top of the normal fee. Our LLP annual compliance plan files all three; the LLP annual compliance guide explains the penalties. Need only the agreement filed? See LLP Form 3 filing in Kolkata.
