A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) combines the flexibility of a partnership with the protection of a company. Governed by the LLP Act, 2008, an LLP is a separate legal entity, which means the partners are not personally liable for the LLP’s debts beyond their agreed contribution. It is a popular choice for professionals, consultants, small service businesses and family-run enterprises that want limited liability without heavy compliance.
At Delhi Tax Solutions, our CAs, Company Secretaries and legal experts handle the entire LLP incorporation process — name reservation, DPIN, FiLLiP filing and the LLP Agreement — so your LLP is registered correctly the first time.
Minimum Requirements for LLP Registration
- Partners: At least 2 partners (individuals or companies).
- Designated Partners: At least 2 individuals, with at least one resident in India (stayed in India for at least 120 days during the financial year).
- DPIN and DSC: Each designated partner needs a Director/Designated Partner Identification Number and a Class-3 Digital Signature Certificate.
- Registered Office: A valid address in India with proof.
- LLP Name: Unique, ending with “LLP”, and not similar to an existing company, LLP or trademark.
- Contribution: No minimum. Partners decide the amount and form of contribution (cash or assets).

Identity Proof (Voter ID, Passport, or Driving License)

Step-by-Step LLP Registration Process
Step 1: Obtain Digital Signature Certificates (DSC)
Since all MCA filings are 100% digital, we first obtain Class-3 Digital Signature Certificates for all designated partners.
Step 2: Apply for DPIN
Every designated partner requires a DPIN. If partners do not already possess a DIN, it is allocated directly through the integrated FiLLiP incorporation form.
Step 3: Name Reservation (RUN-LLP)
We conduct a thorough trademark and MCA database search to reserve a unique name via the RUN-LLP (Reserve Unique Name) service.
Step 4: File Form FiLLiP
FiLLiP is the main incorporation application containing partner details, office address proof, and consents. PAN and TAN for the LLP are generated simultaneously with this step.
Step 5: Receive Certificate of Incorporation
Upon verifying the submission, the Registrar of Companies (ROC) issues the official Certificate of Incorporation along with your LLPIN.
Step 6: Draft & File LLP Agreement (Form 3)
Within 30 days of registration, the LLP Agreement (detailing partner rights, profit sharing, and operational roles) must be executed on state-specific stamp paper and filed via Form 3.
Step 7: Post-Registration Account Setup
Open a dedicated LLP current bank account and complete secondary tax registrations (GST, Udyam MSME, etc.).
