Hello sir,
In LLP Act, 2008, nothing is mentioned about maximum number of partners or designated partners. It is clear by section 11(1)(a) A LLP must contain two persons as partner and by section 7(1) a LLP must contain two person as designated partner. This act is enacted to facilitate the professionals to form a firm with any number of partners so we can conclude there is no restriction in maximum number of partners.
Till, The companies Act, 1956 prevails in our country, the section 11 of The Companies Act, 1956 is applicable to the LLP also, in the section 11(2) it is clearly stated No company, association or partnership consisting of more than twenty persons shall be formed for the purpose of carrying on any other business that has for its object the acquisition of gain by the company, association or partnership, or by the individual members thereof, unless it is registered as a company under this Act, or is formed in pursuance of some otherIndian law. So, I think by this section, even LLP should have only maximum of 20members.
This is my opinion, further amendments in LLP and enactment of The Companies Act, 2008 will give clear picture to us.
Note : Please bear for me sir, if I made any mistake.
Regards,
Deepan Chakravarthy.E
