MCA Compliant
Every Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) registered in India is required to file Form 11 – Annual Return with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), regardless of turnover or business activity.
Form 11 provides a summary of the LLP’s partners and key changes during the financial year. It must be filed every year by 30th May, following the end of the financial year on 31st March.
Late filing attracts a penalty of ₹100 per day with no maximum cap. To stay compliant and avoid heavy fines, file your LLP Form 11 on time.
LLP Form 11 is the Annual Return that every Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) registered in India is legally required to file with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) under Section 35 of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008.
It provides a snapshot of the LLP’s partner details, total contribution by partners, and any changes in the management or structure during the financial year. Unlike companies, LLPs file Form 11 as their annual return — separate from the financial statement filing (Form 8).
📌 All LLPs — including those with no business activity or nil turnover — must mandatorily file LLP Form 11 every year. There is no exemption based on size or turnover.
The due date for filing LLP Form 11 is 30th May of every year, covering the financial year ending 31st March of the same year. This means the form must be filed within 60 days of the close of the financial year.
The penalty for not filing LLP Form 11 by the due date is severe and compounds daily. Unlike some other filings, there is no maximum cap on the penalty amount.
⚠ Late Filing Penalty
₹100 per day for each day of delay, from the due date until the date of actual filing. If you miss the 30 May deadline and file 6 months later, the penalty alone would be approximately ₹18,000 — before any professional fees.
Additionally, continued non-compliance can lead to the LLP and its designated partners being declared as “defaulters” on the MCA portal, which can affect future business dealings, bank loan applications, and tendering eligibility.
The following information and documents are required to complete LLP Form 11 filing:
📋 Note on Certification: Form 11 for LLPs with annual turnover exceeding ₹5 crore or contribution exceeding ₹50 lakh must be certified by a practicing Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, or Cost Accountant.
Filing LLP Form 11 on the MCA portal requires DSC registration and familiarity with the portal. Here is the complete process:
Collect LLPIN, partner details, total contribution, and any changes during the year for accurate form filling.
Visit mca.gov.in, go to MCA Services → E-Filing → LLP Forms → Annual Return Form 11.
Enter LLPIN, financial year, total contribution, number of partners, and partner-wise details including any changes.
For LLPs with turnover above ₹5 crore or contribution above ₹50 lakh, attach the certificate from a practicing professional.
The form must be digitally signed by one of the designated partners using a valid DSC registered on the MCA portal.
Submit the form on the MCA portal and pay the applicable government fee based on contribution amount.
After successful submission, download the Service Request Number (SRN) and acknowledgement for your records.

🚫 Common Misconception
Many LLP partners assume that if there is no business activity or zero revenue, Form 11 is not required. This is incorrect. Non-filing despite nil turnover attracts the same ₹100/day penalty.
Avoid costly ₹100/day penalties. Let our CA and CS experts handle your LLP Annual Return filing accurately and on time.
The due date for filing LLP Form 11 for Financial Year 2025-26 (April 2025 to March 2026) is 30th May 2026. Filing after this date will attract a penalty of ₹100 per day
Yes, LLP Form 11 can be filed after the due date (30 May), but a late fee of ₹100 per day from the due date until the actual date of filing will be levied. There is no upper limit on this penalty.
Yes, even newly incorporated LLPs must file Form 11 for the first financial year after registration, regardless of whether they have started operations or not.
Continued non-filing results in accumulation of penalties (₹100/day), the LLP and its designated partners are marked as defaulters on the MCA portal, and the LLP may eventually be struck off the register by MCA. It also affects CIBIL and creditworthiness of partners.
For LLPs with annual turnover up to ₹5 crore and contribution up to ₹50 lakh, Form 11 can be self-certified by the designated partner. However, for larger LLPs exceeding these thresholds, certification by a practicing CA, CS, or Cost Accountant is mandatory.
