If an LLP fails to file the annual income tax return and the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, then they need to pay a penalty of INR 100 per day, which can result in a major impact on the business activity of an LLP.

    Here are some of the major disadvantages of an LLP: 

    • It offers limited availability, which is only for licensed professionals. Not all states allow the LLP. 
    • It includes many complex processes, which include LLPs to file annual reports of the losses, profits, and partners' income details. 
    • LLP requires a minimum of 2 partners to run an LLP. If one of them is dissolved, then it can become a problem.
    • It provides pass-through taxation, which allows partners to pay taxes individually.

      One of the major disadvantages of an LLP includes disclosure of the personal and financial records to the public domain.

      I have applied for an LLP, which is a limited liability partnership in some states. LLPs' biggest challenge is the variability in state and regulation, and recognition.
