Less uncertainty. More direction.
Partner-led ventures evaluating an LLP and founders comparing it with a private limited company. Start with how partners will contribute, make decisions, share profits and leave the business—not just a proposed name.
Clarity before commitment
Know the deliverables, documents and costs before work starts.
Careful preparation
Identify missing or inconsistent information before submission.
Coordinated support
Bring preparation, queries and follow-up into one agreed workflow.
Practical next steps
Know what you need to provide and what happens at handover.
GET READY, ONE STEP AT A TIME
Your document starting point.
We’ll share an applicant-specific checklist after a short discussion. The exact records depend on your circumstances.

Before your first conversation
A useful start. No phone number needed.
Organise your business facts and get a checklist to discuss with our team.

We prepare, coordinate and track the agreed work. You stay involved in the decisions that matter.
01
Record the partners' decisions
Identify the proposed formation and agreement deliverables.
02
Prepare FiLLiP inputs
Check the agreed partner, name, office and application records.
03
Submit after approval
Coordinate the authorised incorporation filing and included follow-up.
04
Complete the agreement handover
Coordinate the agreement-related steps and Form 3 within the written scope.
Timing agreed after document review
Formation depends on document readiness, signatories, name processing and MCA responses. Agreement execution and its filing have their own requirements: obtain a dated checklist for your incorporation rather than assuming the certificate finishes every step.
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU STAND
Clear scope. No surprises.
The written engagement confirms your deliverables and costs before work starts.
Service scope to agree
Record the partner structure and proposed LLP formation scope
Prepare the relevant partner and office checklist
Coordinate name and FiLLiP incorporation particulars
Include agreement preparation and Form 3 only to the extent stated in writing
Provide filing acknowledgements and an initial action map
Outside the standard scope
—A guarantee of name approval, registration or tax savings
—Partner disputes or a bespoke commercial agreement beyond the engagement
—Foreign-investment, regulated-activity or conversion work unless expressly included
Are incorporation and the LLP agreement the same filing?+
No. FiLLiP concerns name reservation and incorporation. Form 3 is the agreement-information/change workflow. Agree who will prepare, execute and file the relevant records.
A template should not replace decisions about contribution, management, profit sharing, admission, exit and disputes. Bespoke drafting or advice must be explicitly scoped.
Is an LLP always cheaper or better than a company?+
No universal comparison is reliable. Compare the actual formation quote, recurring work, commercial terms and funding plan for your venture.
What changes the LLP registration fee?+
Partner and contribution details, state-dependent agreement costs, signatures, foreign documents and the agreed professional work affect the quote. Ask for separate cost lines.
Can the partners keep control of their signatures?+
Yes—signatory participation should stay with the authorised people. Never send passwords, OTPs or signature credentials through a public enquiry.
What should I receive at handover?+
Ask for the available incorporation records, agreement and filing acknowledgements covered by the engagement, plus a dated list assigning the next actions.
How soon is the initial LLP agreement information filed?+
MCA states that initial agreement information in Form 3 is filed within 30 days of incorporation. Its FAQ separately gives 30 days for changes to the agreement. Keep the executed agreement, event date and acknowledgement together, and check any current applicable relief rather than assuming that document preparation extends the deadline.
An LLP is a business structure governed by India's LLP framework. Registration and the partners' agreement are connected but distinct pieces of work. LIQUETAX can help organise partner, office and contribution information, prepare the agreed incorporation application and coordinate the agreement-related work specified in your engagement.

Question
What matters
Next step
Partner roles
Identify partners, designated partners and any body-corporate nominees.
Check individual eligibility and residency requirements against the current law before filing.
Contribution
Record the contribution and the agreed commercial terms.
Contribution, profit sharing and management responsibilities need not be casually treated as the same question.
Incorporation
FiLLiP is the name-reservation and LLP incorporation form.
Check the intended name, activities, office and signatory readiness together.
Agreement
Form 3 records information about the LLP agreement and relevant changes.
Plan initial Form 3 within 30 days of incorporation. Assign agreement preparation, execution, applicable stamp duty and filing before the certificate is issued.
LLP or company?
Compare the partners' operating model with the ownership and funding plan.
Do not assume the same structure suits every professional firm or investor-led venture.
Fee details, estimates & quote variables
₹5,000. Professional fee. Applicable GST, government charges and agreed third-party costs are extra.
One specified service engagement. Confirm the applicant, deliverables and exclusions in writing before work starts.
The written quote separates professional fees and applicable GST from MCA charges, agreement stamp duty, DSC and any document-certification costs. Confirm the contribution, state and applicant facts before treating an external-charge estimate as final.
