15 is the eForm used to file the <strong>Statement of Account &amp; Solvency<\/strong> of an LLP with the ROC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Meaning of Form 15 LLP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Form 15 is a declaration by the LLP that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Its <strong>accounts are correct<\/strong>, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is able to <strong>meet its liabilities<\/strong> as they fall due<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">along with key financial figures for the relevant financial year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why does MCA require this form?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To assess the <strong>financial health and solvency<\/strong> of LLPs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To maintain <strong>transparent and updated financial records<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To ensure LLPs are meeting annual compliance obligations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who needs to file the LLP Form 15?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Every <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/razorpay.com\/rize\/company-registration\/llp\"><strong>LLP registered in India<\/strong><\/a>, whether operational or not<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LLPs with <strong>no business activity<\/strong> also need to file (with NIL figures, if applicable)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When is LLP Form 15 required<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common situations where Form 15 is filed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Annual filing of <strong>Statement of Account &amp; Solvency<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reporting solvency status for the completed financial year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Form 15 is part of <strong>routine annual compliance<\/strong>, not an event-based filing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Due date and timeline<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>LLP Form 15 is generally required to be filed <strong>within 30 days from the end of the six months of the financial year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practically, this means it is usually due around <strong>October<\/strong> each year (subject to extensions)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Late filing impact<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Additional government fees apply<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delay may affect the LLP\u2019s <strong>overall compliance status<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continuous non-compliance can create issues during audits, due diligence, or future filings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Details required in LLP Form 15<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p
