MEANING
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) introduced in 2008 is a prominent legal business structure in India having fewer legal compliances, as the name suggests LLP limits the liability of its partners & lends protection from the incompetence or misdeeds of the other partners. LLP registration is one of the simplest forms of business to incorporate and manage in India.
Also, LLP is less expensive to incorporate and maintain than a Private Limited Company & serves as a better option from a tax perspective.
LLP company registration is preferred by Professionals, Medium and Small businesses due to the simple incorporation procedure and lesser compliance formalities. LLPs are incapable of issuing equity shares, It should thus, not be used for any business that requires raising equity funds during its existence.
REASONS TO OPT FOR A PLC
A private limited partnership offers legal protection to its shareholders but restricts its ownership. It is relatively convenient to manage and run the company with a possibility of expansion for growing companies. Also, it is easy to dissolve and wind up the company.
