Services for clients across India. Applicable state, sector and professional requirements are assessed before an engagement.
Two forms decide an LLP's compliance record: Form 11 by 30 May and Form 8 by 30 October — late filings attract the applicable MCA additional-fee schedule. This engagement covers the two annual forms and the ITR, using reconciled records and an agreed filing calendar.
When this service is typically required
- Every LLP, every year — the obligation exists regardless of activity or profit
- A dormant LLP has quietly accumulated late fees
- Audit applicability needs testing (turnover ₹40 lakh / contribution ₹25 lakh thresholds)
- Partner changes or agreement amendments also need Form 4/3 filings
Indicative scope
- Form 11 (annual return of partners) by 30 May
- Form 8 (statement of account & solvency) by 30 October
- LLP ITR with audit where thresholds are crossed
- Event filings: partner changes, agreement amendments, address shifts
- Late-filing regularisation for backlogged LLPs, quoted upfront
Key points at a glance
| Item | Position |
|---|---|
| Form 11 | Due 30 May each year — even for NIL-activity LLPs |
| Form 8 | Due 30 October — needs books closed and solvency declared |
| Late fee | Additional fees depend on delay and small-LLP status; check the MCA schedule for Form 8 and Form 11 |
| ITR | Due per income-tax calendar; audit if thresholds crossed |
Deliverables
Both forms filed with SRNs, the ITR acknowledgement, a solvency working paper behind Form 8, and a standing reminder calendar.
Information and documents generally required
Books/trial balance, bank statements, partner details and changes during the year, prior filings for continuity.
Engagement process
Client responsibilities, assumptions and reliance
Books and partner-change information must arrive on the agreed dates; delays may lead to additional fees under the applicable filing schedule. Solvency declarations rest on the partners.
Scope exclusions
Strike-off of defunct LLPs and dispute matters are separate engagements (strike-off available as its own service).
Frequently asked questions
Our LLP did nothing this year. Still file?
Annual filing obligations generally continue even without business activity. Additional fees are determined under the MCA schedule, with different treatment for small LLPs; a flat ₹100 per form per day is not the current general rule.
We are three years behind. Options?
File everything with computed late fees — quantified upfront — or, if the LLP is genuinely dead, evaluate strike-off which still requires bringing certain filings current. Honest arithmetic first, then the cheaper path.
Does Form 8 need an audit?
Only past the thresholds; below them, partner certification suffices. Testing the thresholds correctly each year is part of the scope.
Can you take over from our previous consultant mid-cycle?
Yes — a records pull from the MCA portal establishes exactly what is filed and pending before anything is promised.
The applicable scope, documentation, professional responsibilities and timelines are agreed in an engagement letter before commencement.
