This discussion explores whether converting an unlisted limited company into a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) creates a capital gains tax liability on assets such as land and buildings. The consensus is that such a conversion is not considered a 'transfer' under tax law. Therefore, there is no income tax liability on the assets when moving from a company to an LLP structure.

WHEN THE PROPERTY IS TRANSFER DUE TO CONVERSION FROM ONE ENTITY TO ANOTHER, ITS NOT COVERED UNDER THE MEANING OF SALE. THIS TRANSACTION EXCLUDES FROM THE DEFINITION OF "TRANSFER"

there is no liability of income tax on such transfer due to conversion of company into LLP and it is also outside the definition of transfer.
