Hello Auditor

Can a private limited company be converted into LLP?

1. Eligibility for Conversion

  • Only unlisted private companies can be converted into LLPs
  • The company must not have any existing security interest (charge) in its assets at the time of application
  • All shareholders of the company must become partners of the LLP
  • There must be at least two designated partners, with one resident in India

2. Pre-Conversion Requirements

  • Obtain Digital Signature Certificates (DSCs) for all proposed partners
  • Apply for Director Identification Numbers (DINs) if not already held
  • Hold board and shareholder meetings to approve the conversion
  • Ensure that the company is in good compliance with ROC filings and tax obligations

3. Filing and Legal Procedure

  • Apply for name availability using RUN-LLP (Reserve Unique Name)
  • File Form FiLLiP for incorporation of the LLP along with Form 18 (for conversion)
  • Attach required documents including:
    • Statement of shareholders
    • Board resolution and consent of all shareholders
    • Incorporation documents of LLP
    • Financial statements of the company

4. Post-Conversion Compliance

  • The ROC issues a Certificate of Registration for the LLP
  • Intimate all authorities such as income tax department, banks, and clients about the conversion
  • Update PAN, TAN, GST, and other registrations
  • The LLP must file Form 14 with the ROC within 15 days of conversion

5. Effects of Conversion

  • The company’s assets, liabilities, rights, and obligations are transferred to the LLP
  • The private limited company is dissolved without winding up
  • The LLP continues the business as a successor entity
