Limited Liability Partnership Overview

In India, LLPs are required to file their Annual Return within 60 days of the end of the fiscal year and their Statement of Account & Solvency within 30 days of the end of the six-month period after the end of the fiscal year. In contrast to corporations, LLPs are required by law to continue using the April 1 through March 31 fiscal year. As a result, each financial year's Statement of Account & Solvency is due on October 30 and the LLP annual return is due on May 30. LLPs are required to file income tax returns each year in addition to the MCA annual return.
