Overview
A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a hybrid business structure that combines the flexibility of a partnership with the limited liability of a company. Governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, an LLP allows partners to manage the business while ensuring their personal assets remain protected in case of business losses.
Unlike traditional partnerships, an LLP is a separate legal entity, meaning it can own property, enter contracts, and operate independently of its partners. LLPs are particularly suitable for small businesses, professional firms, and startups looking for minimal compliance requirements while enjoying the benefits of limited liability.
