    LLP Annual Filing & ROC Compliance Services in India

    What is LLP Filing?

    LLP Filings is a compulsory statutory report and financial disclosures required to be made to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). The MCA has established this reporting system to keep LLP legal status valid and make it visible in its database as “Active” while at the same time making the company disclosure to partners and government authorities available. It is a matter of E-filing, with only the Annual Return and Statement of Account forms being involved in the process.

     

    Per LLP Act, 2008, a registered LLP shall file Form 11 – Annual Return and Form 8 – Statement of Accounts. The consequence of missing these LLP compliance due dates will be that the parties shall get punished with the heavy, uncapped penalties (₹100 per day per form), which will be a heavy cost in a very short time period. This default penalty is a very heavy compliance consequence, which will be a regretful mistake one can prevent easily.

     

    We make company compliance very manageable with FOXTAX. We not only help in the making of the financial statements and declaration of solvency, we also take care of the ROC e-filing for Form 11 & Form 8 on your behalf. In case you choose us as your compliance partner, you can be rest assured that the Income Tax Return (ITR-5) will be made with complete accuracy. The compliance package we offer covers every part of LLP annual compliance.

    Advantages of a timely filed LLP ROC Compliance

    Prevent Large Penalties:

    A Limited Liability Partnership late fee can be as high as 100 per day per form with no cap on the number of penalty fees. You will not face large financial losses to your business due to delays.

    Preservation of Company Registration:

    Periodic completion of the annual and half-yearly filing procedures of Form 8 and 11 will keep your LLP status as registered and will be beneficial for license renewals.

    Better Access To Lending:

    Commercial lenders like banks demand at least a clean file of three years and audited financial statements before business loans are given approval.

    Loyal Customer Base:

    A well-compliant Limited Liability Partnership will build trust with clients and suppliers through a public record of financial transparency.

    More Freedom To Grow:

    A history of no complaints will give you more leverage for expansion of the business and business partnerships of larger corporations.

    Asset Transfers That Go With No Hassle:

    By having proper filings done, it won't be a problem to admit new partners, change the partners' contributions or make a transfer of ownership.

    Guarding Of Partners' Assets:

    Being in compliance will also be strengthening the "limited liability" nature of the company, the personal fortunes of the partners are not touched by business debts at all.
