ROC Annual compliance of LLP
Introduction to ROC Annual Compliance for LLP
A Limited Liability Partnership is a separate entity, just like Companies. It is governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2008 which stipulates that the partners must maintain the correct book of account and file the same as an annual report with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. The LLP does not have to undergo a statutory audit of its accounts unless the turnover is over Rs.40 lakhs, or the contribution is above Rs.25 lakh. It is therefore not compulsory for LLPs that do not fall within the specified limit to have their books audited. Making the annual filing process easier.
Limited Liability Partnerships are required to submit two main returns, namely: The Statement of Account and Solvency must be filed within thirty (30) calendar days of the end date of the first six (6) months. An Annual Return is due within sixty (60), days of the end date of the fiscal year. The LLPs must maintain the Financial Year i.e. The Financial Year is from the 1st of April to the 31st of March. The Statement of Account & Solvency must be completed by the 30th of October of each financial year. The annual return for LLPs is due every 30th of May, regardless of whether the LLP had finished its business or not. Certain forms are mandatory to file, regardless of whether the LLP is in business or not.
