An LLP is a modern business entity that merges the benefits of a partnership with the limited liability features of a company. Recognized as a separate legal entity, an LLP can own assets, enter contracts, and operate independently of its partners.
At IndianTaxPert, we streamline the entire registration process—from obtaining DSCs, reserving a unique name via RUN-LLP, filing the FiLLiP form, to drafting and filing the LLP Agreement—all in a fully digital and compliant manner.
