• ITR filing for LLP which has no bank account and not perform any business transaction

We have incorporated an LLP firm in MAY 2019 successfully. We are a total of 3 partners. But we have not performed any business transaction. We also don't have any bank account of firm. Now I am planning to close the business. Do I need to file ITR for last financial year for the firm?

Dear sir

since u have taken pan of LLP then it is mandatory for filling ITR even if u have zero profit.

u can file nil ITR. After that only u can process for the strike of the LLP.

since due date of ITR have been extended to 30 November so it is preferable to file NIL ITR.

 

Sir u can’t close the company directly u need to file the strike off form for closing the LLP on mca. Then only MCA will remove ur Llp name in its books.

 

if u want help for the strike of procedure then I can help u in doing the same at lowest cost.

u can contact me through phone consultation

Yes, you are required to file return of income. With respect to the bank account, either you need to open a bank account or may be you can put bank account of managing partner and somehwere in the ITR, mention this fact.

Technically speaking as per section 139 each LLP needs to file return of income every year whether income has been earned or not.

However if you can prove before the AO that LLP was dissolved before 31.03.2020 and that no transaction was done during the year may be he might grant you dissolution without having to file return.

Form 8, 11 are annual return and other Forms one need to file with MCA.

Form 24 is the Form to strike off your name from LLP registry of MCA.

 

Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.

Thank you.

Hi,

 

Yes you have to file the tax return. However, you can skip the filing of ROC filing for the year and straight away apply for closure.

Dear Sir,

 

In case you want to close the LLP without commencement of Business even then Income Tax Return for the FY 2019-20 needs to be filed. 

Also, Income Tax return for the period FY 2020-21 needs to be filed for the period LLP remains in existence.

 

Thanks and Regards
