How the engagement works
LLP Form 11 is the prescribed Annual Return of a Limited Liability Partnership under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008 and applicable LLP Rules. The annual return contains prescribed information relating to the LLP, partners, designated partners, contribution, turnover, and other particulars. The applicable filing deadline, certification requirements, filing fees, and additional fees depend on the LLP’s circumstances and the rules applicable to the relevant financial year. The MCA instruction kit confirms that Form 11 is filed as the Annual Return of LLP through the MCA portal.
Scenario 1: An LLP needs to complete its annual MCA filing for the financial year.
Scenario 2: An LLP wants professional assistance reconciling partner contributions and ownership details before filing Form 11.
Scenario 3: An LLP has changes in partners or designated partners and needs to ensure that its MCA records are accurately reflected in the annual return.
Scenario 4: An LLP wants to verify turnover and other financial information before submitting its annual return.
Scenario 5: An LLP requires assistance with Form 11 preparation, applicable certification, MCA filing, and maintaining the filing acknowledgement.

We verify the names, DIN or DPIN details where applicable, contribution, profit-sharing information, and other partner particulars required for the annual return.
Contribution & Financial Data Reconciliation
We reconcile partner contribution, turnover, and other relevant information with the LLP’s books, Statement of Account and Solvency, and statutory records.
