Add Designated Partner in LLP

How It Works

1. 1

   Document Collection and DPIN Verification

   Draft Consent and Amendment Documents

   Prepare Form 9 consent letter and draft the amendment to the LLP Agreement reflecting the new Designated Partner and any revised clauses.

3. 3

   Execute Amendment on Stamp Paper

   Print the amended LLP Agreement on state-specific stamp paper of the correct value, obtain signatures of all continuing and incoming Designated Partners, and notarise the document.

4. 4

   File Form LLP-3 on MCA21

   Upload the notarised amended agreement and supporting documents on the MCA21 portal using Form LLP-3 within 30 days of the appointment date. Pay the prescribed government filing fee.

5. 5

   Update Internal Registers and Bank Mandate

   Update the LLP's internal register of Designated Partners and notify the bank to revise signatory authorities as applicable.

6. 6

   Obtain Acknowledgement and Confirmation

   Download the MCA21 filing acknowledgement and confirm that the Registrar has updated the LLP master data to reflect the new Designated Partner.
