Introduction to ITR Filing for LLP

Filing Income Tax Returns (ITR) is crucial for Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) in India. As distinct legal entities, LLPs must adhere to specific tax regulations, making timely and accurate ITR filing essential for compliance and financial health.

An LLP is taxed like a partnership firm, paying tax on profits at the corporate tax rate. Partners are then taxed on their share of profits based on their individual income tax slabs. This structure offers limited liability while ensuring proper tax accountability.
