Registered Office & Service of Documents (Section 13)

# Registered Office of LLP (Section 13)

## Core Requirements

1. Every LLP shall have a registered office to which all communications and notices may be addressed and where they shall be received.

2. Any document to be sent to the LLP / a partner / a designated partner may be sent by post or any other prescribed manner at:

• The registered office, OR
• Any other address specifically declared by the LLP for that purpose in the prescribed form and manner.

3. An LLP may change the place of its registered office and shall file the notice of such change.

## Penalty for Default (Section 13(4))

If there is any default in complying with Section 13:

• LLP AND every partner liable to a penalty of ₹500 for each day during which the default continues,
• Subject to a maximum of ₹50,000.

## Quick Recall Math

₹500 per day × 100 days = ₹50,000 (cap reached). So the maximum penalty caps out after about 100 days of default.
