Echte Vorteile

Was macht eine LLP Für Sie arbeiten

Das sind doch keine Marketingargumente. Das sind die spezifische bauliche Vorteile of an LLP that make it genuinely better than a Pvt Ltd for the right kind of business.

01
Tax-Efficient Profit Distribution
LLPs are taxed at a flat 30% on profits, but unlike a Pvt Ltd, there is no dividend distribution tax. Partners withdraw profits without a second layer of tax.
02
Lower Annual Compliance Burden
No board meetings. No AGMs. Audit only required above ₹40L turnover. Just two annual ROC filings — Form 8 and Form 11.
03
120-Tage-Aufenthaltsregel
The LLP Amendment Act 2021 reduced residency from 182 days to 120 days per financial year — ideal for foreign founders who travel regularly.
04
100% FDI — Automatic Route
Foreign nationals, NRIs, OCIs, and foreign companies can hold 100% of an Indian LLP in qualifying sectors — without prior government approval.
05
Full Profit & Capital Repatriation
Partners can repatriate profits abroad after Indian taxes and FEMA reporting. DTAA treaties reduce withholding tax on distributions.
06
No Minimum Capital — Limited Liability
Start with ₹1 in capital contribution. Partners’ personal assets are fully protected. The LLP can own property, contract, sue, and be sued.

FDI Rules for LLPs

What Foreign Investors Must Know

This is the section most provider websites skip — but if you skip it, you can find yourself with an LLP that’s technically in violation of FEMA from day one. We confirm FDI eligibility before you commit.

CONDITION 01 —
100% FDI Automatic Route Sector
The LLP must operate in a sector where 100% FDI is allowed under the automatic route — no government approval required.
CONDITION 02 —
No FDI-Linked Performance Conditions
The sector must have no performance conditions attached to FDI — such as minimum capitalisation, lock-in periods, or mandatory local sourcing.
CONDITION 03 —
Not an FPI or FVCI Investor
The foreign investor must not be a Foreign Portfolio Investor (FPI) or Foreign Venture Capital Investor (FVCI) — these categories cannot invest in LLPs.
← swipe to see all 3 →
Sectors Where LLP FDI Works
✓IT and ITES / Software Services
✓Business Consulting & Advisory
✓Professional Services
✓Most Manufacturing Categories
✓Trading & Distribution
✓Most Non-Financial Services
Sectors Where LLP FDI Is Not Available
✕Defence (FDI cap applies)
✕Insurance (with conditions)
✕Single-Brand Retail (sourcing conditions)
✕Broadcast Media
✕Banking & Multi-Brand Retail
✕Any sector with performance-linked conditions
Excluded Investors — Border Country Rule
Citizens of Pakistan and Bangladesh cannot invest in Indian LLPs. Investors from countries sharing a land border — China, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, Afghanistan — require prior government approval under Press Note 3 (2020).

Why Mercurius

We Get the Filings Others Miss.

Most India incorporation websites process your FiLLiP, hand you a certificate, and disappear — leaving you to figure out FDI-LLP(I), Form 3CEB, DPIN KYC, and profit repatriation on your own. That’s not us.

01

Setting up an LLP with foreign investment requires sector-specific FDI analysis, FEMA pricing guidelines, FDI-LLP(I) filing with RBI, and ongoing transfer pricing documentation. Most portals don’t even know these exist. We handle all of it.

Our professional responds within 24 hours — straight answers, no sales pitch.
Ask our professional directly →
✦ FDI-LLP(I) Filing
RBI reporting within 30 days of receiving foreign capital is mandatory. Most providers miss it. We never do.
Can a foreign company or NRI invest 100% in an Indian LLP?+
Yes — but only when three conditions are met simultaneously: the LLP operates in a sector where 100% FDI is allowed under the automatic route, the sector has no FDI-linked performance conditions, and the investor is not an FPI or FVCI. We confirm all three before you commit.
How is an LLP taxed compared to a Private Limited Company?+
An LLP pays a flat 30% tax on profits. Partners then withdraw their share of profits with no further tax — there is no dividend distribution tax in an LLP. A Pvt Ltd pays 22% corporate tax, but then pays a second layer of tax when distributing dividends. For regular profit distribution, the LLP often wins on total tax outflow.
What is the residency requirement for a Designated Partner in an LLP?+
At least one Designated Partner must have been a resident of India for at least 120 days in the preceding financial year — per the LLP Amendment Act 2021. This is more lenient than the 182-day rule that applies to directors of a Private Limited Company. If you don’t have a trusted person in India, we provide a Resident Designated Partner service.
Don’t have a resident partner in India? We provide a qualified Resident Designated Partner as an add-on.
Get Resident Partner →
What is the FDI-LLP(I) filing and why does it matter?+
FDI-LLP(I) is the RBI reporting form that must be filed within 30 days of receiving foreign capital into an Indian LLP. It documents the inward remittance and capital contribution. Missing this deadline creates FEMA violations and compliance issues during future audits, disputes, or repatriation. Most providers don’t know it exists — we file it without exception.
Is a statutory audit mandatory for an LLP?+
No — not always. A statutory audit is required only if the LLP’s annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh or the capital contribution exceeds ₹25 lakh. Below these thresholds, a statutory audit is not mandatory — one of the key compliance advantages of an LLP over a Pvt Ltd.
Can I repatriate profits from an Indian LLP to my home country?+
Yes. Partners can repatriate their share of LLP profits abroad after applicable Indian taxes and FEMA compliance — including Form 15CA/15CB filings for outward remittances. DTAA treaties between India and your home country apply to reduce withholding tax on distributions. We structure repatriation to minimise tax leakage.
What is the difference between a partner and a designated partner in an LLP?+
Every LLP must have at least two designated partners — these are individuals who bear specific legal responsibility for regulatory compliance (ROC filings, tax returns, penalties). Partners may be individuals or body corporates, but at least one designated partner must be a resident of India for 120+ days. We draft the LLP Agreement to clearly define rights, duties, and profit-sharing for all partners.
Can an LLP be converted to a Private Limited Company later?+
Yes. An LLP can be converted to a Private Limited Company under Section 366 of the Companies Act 2013. This is relevant when LLP partners later decide to raise institutional equity, issue ESOPs, or prepare for a strategic exit. We advise on timing, structure, and manage the conversion process. Many of our clients start with an LLP and graduate to a Pvt Ltd as the business scales.
