Home / Change in Business Structure / Private Limited to LLP Conversion Conversion

Last updated: 2 October 2026
An LLP offers limited liability with lighter compliance, which suits many professional and closely held businesses. Our team checks whether your company qualifies, handles the conversion filings and plans the tax side.
Section 56 and the Third Schedule of the LLP Act, 2008 allow a private company (or unlisted public company) to convert into an LLP if:
The LLP is incorporated through FiLLiP, with the conversion application in Form 18. Once registered, the company’s assets, liabilities and contracts vest in the LLP, and the company is treated as dissolved.
Tax: the conversion is not treated as a transfer under section 70(1)(ze) of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (earlier section 47(xiiib)) only if, among other conditions, turnover did not exceed ₹60 lakh in each of the three preceding years, total assets did not exceed ₹5 crore, shareholders become partners in the same proportion, partners keep at least 50% of profit share for five years, and accumulated profits are not paid out for three years.
Based on the LLP Act, 2008 and the Income-tax Act, 2025. Last updated: 27 September 2026.
