A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a modern business structure that combines the advantages of a partnership firm and a private limited company. It provides the flexibility of a partnership along with the benefit of limited liability protection.
LLPs are governed by the provisions of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008 and are registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
