LLP COMPLIANCE CALENDAR 2026-27 : IMPORTANT MCA DUE DATES & FILINGS
Starting an LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) comes with ongoing legal responsibilities. Registration is only the first step—an LLP must also complete its annual MCA filings and event-based compliances within the prescribed time. The good news is that LLP compliance is relatively simple when you know what needs to be filed, who needs to file it, and when.

Types of Compliances
Form 8 – Statement of Account & Solvency
Form 8 is the financial and solvency statement of an LLP filed with MCA. Every LLP is generally required to file it by 30 October every year. It contains details of the LLP’s financial position and solvency. Example: An LLP reports its annual financial information and confirms its solvency through Form 8.
DIR-3 KYC
DIR-3 KYC is used for the KYC of applicable individuals holding DIN/DPIN. Designated Partners/persons holding DIN/DPIN, where applicable, need to complete it within the MCA-prescribed deadline. Example: A designated partner updates their PAN, mobile number, email and other required details.
Form 3 – Change in LLP Agreement
Form 3 is filed when there is a change in the LLP Agreement. LLPs making such changes need to file it generally within 30 days of the change. Example: Partners change their profit-sharing ratio from 50:50 to 60:40 → Form 3 is filed.
Form 4 – Change in Partners
Form 4 is used to report changes in the partners or designated partners of an LLP. LLPs having a change in partners/designated partners generally need to file it within 30 days of the change. Example: A new partner joins the LLP → Form 4 is filed.
Form 15 – Change in Registered Office
Form 15 is used to report a change in the registered office of an LLP. LLPs shifting their registered office need to complete the prescribed filing. Example: An LLP shifts its registered office from Raipur to Bilaspur → the applicable Form 15 is filed.
