LLP Agreement Format for Adding Partner
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a relatively new type of business entity in India that combines the advantages of both the Company and Partnership into a single form of organization and one partner is not responsible or liable for another partner's misconduct or negligence. Therefore, all partners have a form of limited liability for each individual's protection within the partnership, similar to that of the shareholders of a company. For various reasons, there maybe a requirement for adding a new Partner to an existing Partnership. In this article, we look at the procedure for Adding New Partner to a LLP. Also, the LLP agreement format for adding Partner to an existing LLP is provided.
Procedure for Adding Partner to LLP
To add a new Partner to an existing LLP, consent of all existing Partners is usually required. However, if the LLP agreement permits, one Partner can also have the powers to admit new Partners to the LLP without consent of all the existing Partners in the LLP. The new Partner wishing to join the LLP must give intimation of his/her intent to join the LLP in Form 6. Once, the person is admitted as a new Partner, the LLP has to file Form 4 within 30 days from the date he/she becomes Partner in the LLP. LLP Form 4 must be signed by an existing Designated Partner. Further, a certificate is required from a practicing Company Secretary or Chartered Accountant to the effect that the CS/CA has verified all the details of the Partner addition including the books and records of the LLP and found them to be correct.
In addition, to the above, a LLP agreement for adding Partner must be executed as an addendum to the existing LLP Agreement.
