Maintenance of Proper Book of Accounts

In LLP annual filing, one must diligently maintain accurate and up-to-date financial records. These records should encompass details of the LLP's financial transactions, profits, expenses, assets, and liabilities. Proper bookkeeping is crucial to assess the financial health and performance of the LLP.

Filing of Annual Return - LLP Form 11

LLPs are required to file an annual return with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs for each financial year. This annual return is submitted using Form 11, which gathers essential details about the LLP, including the total number of designated partners, comprehensive partner information, contributions received by partners, and a summary of all partners involved.

Filing Deadline

  • All LLPs must submit Form 11 within 60 days after the conclusion of the financial year, i.e., by May 30th each year.

Importance of Timely Filing

  • LLPs must adhere to this deadline as failing to do so prevents them from closing or winding up operations until all annual returns, including Form 11, are filed.

Penalty for Late Filing

  • LLPs will incur a penalty of Rs.100 for each day of delay if they do not submit the annual return on time.

Duration of Penalty

  • The penalty is applied from the due date of filing the return and continues until the return is actually filed.

Filing of Statement of Accounts – LLP Form 8

LLPs must submit a Statement of Accounts & Solvency annually, detailing the financial position of the LLP, including its assets and liabilities. This statement is filed using Form 8.

Due Date

  • Form 8 must be filed within 30 days after six months from the conclusion of the financial year to ensure LLP compliance.

Signing and Certification

  • Form 8 must be digitally signed by two designated partners of the LLP and certified by a company secretary, chartered accountant, or cost accountant.

Form Components

  • Part A: The Solvency Statement - Provides insights into the financial health and stability of the LLP.
  • Part B: Statement of Expenditure & Income, Statement of Accounts - Contains details of income, expenses, and a comprehensive statement of accounts.

Penalty for Late Filing

  • LLPs will incur a penalty of Rs.100 per day for delays in filing Form 8.

Importance of Compliance

  • Filing Form 8 on time ensures that LLPs remain in good standing and avoid financial penalties.

Audit and Tax Filing Requirements for LLPs

Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) are subject to specific audit and tax filing obligations as per the provisions of the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2008, and the Income Tax Act, 1961. Here are the key requirements:

Tax Audit

  • Audit Requirement: LLPs with an annual turnover exceeding Rs. 40 lakhs or a contribution surpassing Rs. 25 lakhs are obligated to have their books of account audited by practicing Chartered Accountants.
  • The deadline for filing the tax return for such LLPs is September 30th.

Tax Filing Deadline (Without Tax Audit)

For LLPs not required to undergo a tax audit, the due date for tax filing is July 31st.

International Transactions - Form 3CEB
