Mandatory Annual Filings LLP
Overview About Service
LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) is a special fusion of a partnership and a limited company. There is no maximum number of partners; however, there are minimum requirements of two partners.
LLPs are required to submit their annual returns, account statements, and solvency reports within 30 days of the end of the first six months following the end of the financial year, and within 60 days of the end of the financial year.
LLPs have a fiscal year that runs from April 1 through March 31. The statement of accounts and solvency are due on October 30 of each fiscal year, whereas the annual return is due on May 30.
For LLPs registered in India, the income tax rate is 30% of the total income. When the total income reaches Rs. 1 crore, an additional 12% surcharge is applied to the income tax that must be paid.
A 4% Health and Education Cess is also added to the appropriate surcharge and income tax amounts.
LLPs are liable to Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT), just like corporations are. LLPs must pay an alternate tax at a minimum rate of 18.5% of their adjusted gross income. Because of the income tax surcharge, education cess, and secondary and higher education cess, the income tax that must be paid by an LLP cannot be less than 18.5%.
LLPs must file Form 3CEB if they engage in certain domestic transactions or overseas transactions with related enterprises. An accountant who is chartered must certify this form. For these LLPs, the Form 3CEB submission deadline is November 30.
