INTRODUCTION
Know about change in Partners of LLP
Any director may be removed from the organization by the shareholders of the firm prior to the end of the director’s term. However, because it exempts some directors from this type of dismissal, the aforementioned paragraph has considerable limits.
The approval of the other partners is required before adding or removing a partner from an LLP. The LLP Agreement must then be changed, and the amendments must be applied for and approved by the MCA. Within thirty days of the change’s effective date, the application must be submitted to MCA.
Why is the change of partners required?
Expertise with additional capital
A partner is typically chosen due to a lack of cash or skill. When a company's capital rises, so do its lending opportunities and borrowing ability. The admission of a partner leverages knowledge and abilities in addition to financial gains. The firm grows far because of the diversity of information and goodwill foundation.
Inability of the existing Partner
An existing LLP partner cannot contribute full time after a certain period due to retirement or other reasons. Although the exit of one partner may not affect the existing LLP, it should be resolved by filing a notice with the MCA and also appointing a new partner, if necessary.
Change in terms of Partnership
The terms are negotiated between the parties and are subject to change at any moment. One or both partners' willingness may be impacted by the change. It may be necessary to add or remove a partner based on agreements and restrictions. Consequently, it is necessary to adhere to the proper process.
Number of Designated Partners is below the statutory limit
Every LLP must always have at least two nominated partners. The LLP must appoint a new nominated partner or change the status of the existing partner if the number of nominated partners falls below two due to withdrawal from the LLP.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, by executing the supplemental deed, the provisions of addition or removal from the LLP agreement must be amended. The deed will contain all the information, including the change in terms, capital, and profit-sharing ratio.
- Within 30 days of the change’s effective date or the execution date, whichever comes first, the Supplementary Deed must be filed. There is an extra charge of Rs 100 every day until the filing deadline for filing late.
- The primary distinction between the two kinds of partners is accountability. In cases when a partner has exclusive responsibility for their own actions and inactions, the Designated Partners bear additional accountability for the LLP’s operational and compliance issues, including any applicable laws.
After the effective date, the LLP has six months to choose a new designated partner. However, if the LLP already has another partner, that partner’s position may be altered to that of a Designated Partner.
- Stamp duty must be paid at the rate set by the relevant state, taking into account the additional capital in the limited liability partnership. The Supplementary Agreement must be executed by paying Rs 100/-as stamp duty in cases when capital is being added or removed.
- To become a Partner, there are no restrictions based on citizenship or place of residence. As a result, as long as at least one of the designated partners is an Indian resident, foreign nationals, including foreign companies and LLPs, are permitted to establish LLPs in India under the LLP Act, 2008. The suggested Designated Partner must be eligible and possess a valid DIN.
