What is LLP Annual Filing? Why is it important to do?
The process of submitting an LLP’s yearly returns and financial statements to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) is known as LLP Annual Filing. To stay in compliance with the MCA, LLPs must file two forms each year: LLP Form 8 and LLP Form 11.
LLP Form 11 due date for FY 2022-23 (LLP Annual Return Filing)- 30.05.2023
LLPs must file LLP Form 11, commonly known as the Annual Return Filing, to disclose information about the LLP’s partners, capital contributions, and other pertinent information. The deadline for LLP Form 11 for fiscal year 2022-23 is May 30, 2023.
LLP form 8 Due date for FY 2022-23- 30.10.2023
LLPs are obliged to file LLP Form 8, commonly known as the Statement of Account and Solvency, to provide information regarding the LLP’s financial situation. The deadline for LLP Form 8 for fiscal year 2022-23 is October 30, 2023.
Due date for IT Returns for LLP for FY 2022-23
The deadline for filing Income Tax Returns (ITRs) for LLPs for fiscal year 2022-23 is July 31, 2023. If an LLP’s annual turnover reaches Rs. 40 lakhs or its capital contribution exceeds Rs. 25 lakhs in a fiscal year, it must file an ITR before September 30 if it is needed for an LLP to appoint an auditor.
Late fees for LLP Form 8 and LLP Form 11 filing
If an LLP fails to file LLP Form 8 or LLP Form 11 by the due date, it must pay a late filing charge of Rs. 100 each day for each form until the date of filing, up to a maximum of Rs. 5,000 per form. If the documents are not filed within a set amount of time, the late filing charge may increase, and failure to file the papers may result in extra penalties and legal implications.
Keys Points to Consider
Aside from the LLP compliance standards outlined above, LLPs should be aware of a few additional key things:
Minimum and Maximum number of Partners
An LLP must have at least two partners, and there is no maximum number of partners.
Registered Office
Each LLP must have an authorized office in India.
Designated Partners
Every LLP must have at least two authorized partners who are in charge of the LLP’s compliance duties and filings. Those who are also in charge of the LLP’s day-to-day operations.
LLP Agreement
An LLP Agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of the LLP, such as the partners’ roles and obligations, the profit-sharing ratio, and the LLP’s management. Every LLP must have an LLP Agreement in place.
Changes in LLP
Any adjustments to the LLP, such as a change in partners or an address, must be reported to the Registrar of Companies (ROC) within 30 days.
Audit Requirement
LLPs must have their accounts audited if their annual turnover reaches Rs. 40 lakhs or their capital contribution surpasses Rs. 25 lakhs.
By acknowledging these critical characteristics of LLPs, LLPs can assure regulatory compliance and avoid penalties and legal implications. If you have any questions or are confused about LLP compliance, please do not hesitate to contact us info@taxvic.com.
