Total Cost of LLP Registration in Ahmedabad: Government Fees
Short answer: The government part of LLP registration in Ahmedabad is made up of four items: the RUN-LLP name fee (₹200 per application), the FiLLiP incorporation fee, which depends on the capital contribution, the Form 3 fee for filing the LLP agreement, and Gujarat stamp duty on the LLP agreement at 1% of the contribution, capped at ₹10,000. On top of these, each designated partner needs a digital signature certificate (DSC). The total therefore depends mainly on your capital contribution and on how many partners need a new DSC.
What makes up the cost
| Item | Who charges it | How it is worked out |
|---|---|---|
| Name reservation (RUN-LLP) | MCA | ₹200 per application |
| Incorporation (FiLLiP) | MCA | A slab fee based on the total capital contribution; the portal shows the exact fee |
| LLP agreement (Form 3) | MCA | A slab fee based on the contribution |
| Stamp duty on the LLP agreement | Government of Gujarat | 1% of the total contribution, up to a maximum of ₹10,000 (no minimum) |
| Digital signature (DSC) | A licensed certifying authority | One for each designated partner who does not already have a valid Class 3 DSC |
| Notarisation or apostille | Notary / overseas authority | Only for documents of foreign or NRI partners |
MCA’s fee calculator on the portal shows the exact FiLLiP and Form 3 fee for your contribution. Use our LLP agreement stamp duty calculator for the Gujarat figure: ₹1 lakh pays ₹1,000, ₹5 lakh pays ₹5,000, and ₹10 lakh or more pays ₹10,000.
What changes the total
- Capital contribution. A higher contribution moves FiLLiP and Form 3 into higher slabs and raises the stamp duty up to its cap.
- Number of designated partners without a DSC. Each needs one; partners who already hold a valid Class 3 DSC do not.
- Foreign or NRI partners. Their documents may need notarisation or apostille.
- Name rejections. A rejected name means a fresh RUN-LLP application. Check the name first with the LLP name rules checker.
- Property brought in as capital. A partner’s property transferred to the LLP attracts separate stamp duty as a conveyance.
Costs that come after registration
Every LLP files Form 11 by 30 May and Form 8 by 30 October each year, plus an income-tax return, whether or not it has done any business. Late filing adds a fee that grows with the delay; see the LLP compliance calendar and the LLP late fee calculator.
