Change in LLP Agreement

The Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Agreement serves as the cornerstone document for an LLP, analogous to the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association for private limited companies. It delineates the operational scope, rights, duties, and obligations of the partners, and encompasses crucial details such as partner information, capital contributions, profit-sharing arrangements, protocols for board meetings, dispute resolution mechanisms, and procedures for LLP dissolution.

Various circumstances, such as shifts in business activities, alterations in capital contributions, or changes in partner composition, may necessitate amendments to the LLP Agreement.

To effect changes in the LLP Agreement, the following procedural steps must be followed:

• 1. Resolution Approval: Partners must convene and pass a resolution endorsing the proposed amendments to the LLP Agreement.
• 2. Filing Form with Registrar: Subsequently, Form 3 must be filed with the Registrar of Companies within 30 days from the date of amending the LLP Agreement. If the amendment involves changes in partners or designated partners, Form 4 must be filed concurrently with Form 3.

Documents required to be appended with Form 3 include:

• • Original LLP Agreement
• • Amended or supplementary LLP Agreement reflecting the revisions
• • Resolution passed by the partners approving the amendments
• • Any additional documents stipulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA)

Adherence to these procedures ensures compliance with statutory regulations and facilitates the seamless adaptation of the LLP Agreement to meet evolving business requirements.
