A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is easier than a company, but it STILL has some mandatory compliances every year.
Think of it like maintaining a car — service it regularly, and you’ll never face penalties.
Here’s everything an LLP must do, explained simply:
✔ Income & expense details
✔ Invoices & bills
✔ Bank statements
✔ Partnership agreement copy
✔ Minutes of important decisions (not mandatory but good practice)
📌 Form 11 – Annual Return
📌 Form 8 – Statement of Accounts & Solvency
📌 File ITR-5
✔ Turnover > ₹40 lakh, or
✔ Capital contribution > ₹25 lakh
✔ File GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B every month/quarter
✔ Maintain sales & purchase records
✔ Reconcile GST monthly
✔ Issue proper GST-compliant invoices
✔ Rent above ₹50,000/month
✔ Professional fees
✔ Contractor payments
✔ Salaries (where applicable)
✔ Professional Tax (some states)
✔ MSME registration
✔ Shops & Establishment license
✔ PF/ESI if employees cross limits
✔ Sector-specific licenses (FSSAI, SEZ, etc.)
