LLP Closure and Strike Off

An LLP nobody uses is not free. The annual fee keeps accruing at Rs 100 a day per form until it is formally closed.

Abandoning it is the expensive option

When a business stops, partners often just stop filing. For an LLP that is the worst outcome available, because the filing obligation does not end with the business and the late fee has no upper limit. Every day the LLP stays on the register, the number grows on both annual forms.

Worse, you cannot escape it by ignoring it. Striking off requires the filings to be current first. So an LLP abandoned three years ago has to be brought up to date — paying the accumulated fee — before it can be closed. The bill for closing gets larger the longer closure is postponed.

If you know the LLP has no future, closing it this year is cheaper than closing it next year, by an amount you can calculate exactly.

What strike off needs

  • Annual filings up to date. The main hurdle where there is a gap.
  • No assets and no liabilities. Accounts closed, dues settled, nothing outstanding.
  • Consent of all partners. Every partner has to agree to the closure.
  • An affidavit and indemnity from the designated partners. Declaring the position is as stated.
  • Bank account closure certificate. The account must actually be closed, not merely unused.
  • Form 24 with the Registrar, after which the name is published before removal.

Common questions

Somewhat, since there is less to settle. But the annual filings still have to be current, so if it was incorporated two years ago and never filed, that comes first.

Typically a few months from filing, allowing for the publication period. Bringing overdue filings current comes before that, and its length depends on the gap.

There is a process, but it involves an application to the Tribunal and is considerably more work than not letting it happen. If you may want the LLP later, keep it filed.

Almost never. Dormant still means two filings a year. If there is no realistic use for the LLP, closure ends the obligation permanently.
