What we handle, from the LLP’s name to its registration

We reserve the name, draft the LLP agreement and register the LLP, and later convert or close it when the business changes.

How LLP names are judged next to company names

An LLP name is refused if it matches or too nearly resembles any company, LLP or registered trademark (LLP Act, section 15). Where the LLP rules differ from the company rules:

TopicCompanies and LLPs
How resemblance is tested
  • Companies: a fixed list of what is ignored (Rule 8(2))
  • LLPs: general resemblance, including sound-alikes such as "J.K." and "Jay Kay", and translations (LLP Rule 18(2))
Trademarks
  • Companies: a registered mark in the same class
  • LLPs: any registered mark, in any class
Words that suggest government
  • Companies: allowed with the Central Government’s approval
  • LLPs: generally refused
Bank, Insurance, Venture Capital, Mutual Fund
  • Companies: the regulator’s approval, or a declaration that it will be obtained
  • LLPs: the regulator’s approval; in 2026 the Central Registration Centre also refused finance businesses for LLPs
Names of closed entities
  • Companies: 2 years after liquidation, 20 after a strike-off
  • LLPs: 5 years
How long a reserved name is held
  • Companies: 20 days, extendable to 60
  • LLPs: 3 months, with no extension
Coined or Indian-language words
  • LLPs: the form asks what the word means

Every enquiry gets a written reply within 12 hours.

Then our LLP registration team reserves the name, drafts the LLP agreement and registers the LLP.

Questions about LLP names

How do I check LLP name availability?

Search it against every company and LLP and apply the LLP rules on sound-alikes, translations, trademarks and restricted words. Our LLP name check does both.

How long is an LLP name reserved?

An approved LLP name is held for 3 months, with no extension.

Can an LLP have the same name as a company?

No. An LLP name is refused if it matches or too nearly resembles any company or LLP name.

Does an LLP name have to end with LLP?

Yes, with "LLP" or "Limited Liability Partnership".

What is an LLPIN?

An LLPIN is the LLP Identification Number: three letters, a hyphen and four numbers, such as AAA-0001.

Can a foreign LLP reserve its name in India?

Yes. It files Form 25 LLP, and the name is held for 3 years, renewable.

How do I get name approval for an LLP?

File up to two names in RUN-LLP with the Rs 200 fee and explain any coined word. An approved name is held for 3 months.

What do I attach to RUN-LLP?

Only what the name calls for: the owner’s consent for a registered trademark in any class, the regulator’s approval for Bank, Insurance, Venture Capital or Mutual Fund, and the professional council’s no-objection for words such as Chartered Accountants.

How many LLPs are registered in India?

MCA’s published register lists 562,228 LLPs, 509,912 of them Active.

How do I verify an LLP?

Search its name or LLPIN and check its status, date of incorporation and registered office against its documents.

Is an LLP better than a private limited company?

A private limited company suits a business that will raise equity. An LLP suits partners who want lighter compliance, and it cannot run a finance business.
