What is an LLP?
LLP stands for Limited Liability Partnership, governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. It gives limited liability to the partners.
An LLP needs at least two partners, there is no minimum capital investment, and one partner must be a resident of India, i.e., must have stayed for 182 days in India. LLPs are often chosen by small businesses in India. However, an LLP by its nature does not allow equity shares to be issued, so it cannot raise money from the general public.
The biggest advantage of the LLP form of business over a Pvt Ltd Company is that it has fewer compliance requirements than a company.

Advantages of an LLP
Distinct legal recognition
LLPs are treated as separate legal entities, so the partners and the LLP are distinct from each other in the eyes of the law.
Raising capital
Financing a small business can be difficult. Being a regulated entity, an LLP can attract finance from investors and institutions.
No mandatory audit requirement
In an LLP, audit is required only where annual turnover/contribution exceeds Rs 40 lakhs / Rs 25 lakhs; accounts are then audited by a chartered accountant.
Taxation relief
An LLP is not required to pay surcharge on income tax or dividend distribution tax, unlike companies.
Easily transferable ownership
Ownership can be transferred in accordance with the LLP Agreement—allowing smooth exit of old partners and induction of new partners.
Perpetual succession
An incorporated LLP has perpetual succession. Changes in partners do not affect the continuity or rights of the LLP.
