When LLP is the right structure
- Two or more partners running a practice, agency, or trading concern
- You want limited liability without the full Pvt Ltd board calendar
- You do not need to issue shares or ESOPs in the next 24 months
If funding or ESOPs are on the roadmap, start as Pvt Ltd. Conversion later is possible but slower than choosing right the first time.
