Planning to wind up your Limited Liability Partnership? Acculex provides end-to-end legal assistance for both Suo Moto closure (strike-off) and formal winding up of LLPs — fully compliant with the LLP Act, 2008.
Under the LLP Act, 2008, there are two legally recognized methods to close down a Limited Liability Partnership. Choosing the right method depends on your LLP's current status, liabilities, and operational history.
This is applicable when the LLP has not been carrying on any business operations for a period of one year or more, or when the partners decide to close it voluntarily by filing an application with the Registrar of Companies (ROC).
The Registrar publishes a notice on its website for one month inviting public objections. If no objections are received, the LLP's name is struck off from the register — effectively dissolving it.
⚡ Faster & more affordable — recommended for inactive LLPs
Governed by Sections 63, 64, and 65 of the LLP Act, 2008, winding up is a formal process where all assets of the LLP are disposed of to settle its liabilities, and any surplus is distributed among the partners.
This method is suitable for LLPs with assets, pending liabilities, or those facing legal obligations.
📌 More structured — required for LLPs with outstanding obligations
The LLP Act provides for two modes of winding up — voluntary (partner-initiated) and compulsory (Tribunal-ordered). Understanding the difference is crucial before proceeding.
Under voluntary winding up, the partners mutually decide to stop and wind up the operations of the LLP. This is the most common and straightforward form of LLP closure when all partners are in agreement.
A declaration of solvency must be made by the majority of designated partners confirming that the LLP has no outstanding debts or that it will be able to pay its debts in full within a specified period.
A Tribunal (NCLT) may order compulsory winding up of an LLP in any of the following circumstances:
