LLC Mumbai FAQ

Questions NRIs Ask About
LLC Registration in India

Real questions from NRIs in the US, UK and UAE — answered by our FEMA-expert CA team.

Is LLC registration available in India / Mumbai?
No. India does not have an LLC (Limited Liability Company) structure. The LLC exists in the United States, United Kingdom and other countries but not in India. However, India has two direct equivalents: (1) LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) — almost identical to US LLC in liability protection and flexible management; (2) Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) — a separate legal entity with limited liability. If you're searching for LLC registration in Mumbai, Sirus Infotech registers both LLP and Pvt Ltd in 7–15 days, fully online, FEMA compliant.
What is the closest equivalent of LLC in India for NRIs?
The closest Indian equivalent to a US LLC is the LLP (Limited Liability Partnership) under the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. Key similarities: limited liability protection, flexible management without rigid board requirements, and pass-through-like taxation (though LLP pays 30% flat tax at entity level, unlike US LLC's complete pass-through). For NRIs who need equity fundraising, FDI under RBI automatic route, or ESOP issuance — Private Limited Company is the better LLC equivalent as it mirrors an LLC treated as a corporation for US tax purposes.
Can an NRI in the USA register an LLP or Pvt Ltd in Mumbai without visiting India?
Yes, 100% remote. NRIs in the US, UK, UAE, Canada, Singapore or anywhere in the world can register an LLP or Pvt Ltd in Mumbai without visiting India. The entire process is digital: document sharing via email/WhatsApp, DSC issuance via video verification, MCA portal filing, and Certificate of Incorporation delivered to your email. One requirement: at least one resident Indian director/partner is mandatory. We connect you with professional nominee directors if needed, until you or a trusted person can take on the resident director role.
How does LLP taxation in India compare to US LLC pass-through taxation?
LLP and US LLC taxation differ in an important way: US LLC has complete pass-through taxation — profits are taxed only at member level (not at entity level). Indian LLP pays 30% income tax at the entity level on its profits. Profit distributed to LLP partners is then not taxed again in India — avoiding double taxation. For NRIs receiving LLP profit, India-US DTAA (Double Tax Avoidance Agreement) provisions may apply. You should consult a US-India dual tax advisor for your specific situation — we provide referrals. Our role is India entity setup; your home-country tax obligations are separate.
What is the FEMA compliance requirement for an NRI registering a company in Mumbai?
FEMA (Foreign Exchange Management Act) compliance for NRI company registration includes: (1) Capital contribution must come through NRE (Non-Resident External) or NRO (Non-Resident Ordinary) bank account or via wire transfer through proper banking channels — not cash; (2) FC-GPR (Foreign Currency Gross Provisional Return) must be filed with RBI within 30 days of share allotment for Pvt Ltd with foreign investment; (3) Annual FLA (Foreign Liabilities and Assets) return if foreign investment exceeds threshold; (4) Pricing guidelines for share valuation under FEMA regulations. Sirus Infotech's complete Pvt Ltd package includes all FEMA compliance advisory and FC-GPR filing assistance.
Can a foreign company (US LLC) register a 100% owned subsidiary in Mumbai?
Yes. A US LLC, US Corporation, UK Limited or any foreign company can register a 100% owned subsidiary (Wholly Owned Subsidiary — WOS) in Mumbai as a Private Limited Company. This is permitted under FDI automatic route for most sectors (IT, e-commerce, manufacturing, consulting). Requirements: (1) Parent company resolution authorizing India subsidiary formation; (2) Apostilled Charter documents (Certificate of Incorporation, MOA/AOA) of parent company; (3) At least one resident Indian director on the subsidiary board; (4) Registered office address in Mumbai. We specialize in WOS registration for foreign entities expanding into India.
What is the cost of registering an LLC equivalent (LLP / Pvt Ltd) in Mumbai for an NRI?
Total cost for NRI company registration in Mumbai: For LLP — government fees ₹500–₹2,000 + Maharashtra stamp duty + DSC charges + our service fee (all-inclusive from ₹3,999). For Pvt Ltd — MCA filing fees + Maharashtra stamp duty (₹200–₹2,000 depending on capital) + DSC charges + our service fee (all-inclusive from ₹7,999 for complete package). Additional NRI-specific costs: notarization/apostille of overseas documents (USD $50–$200 depending on country), PAN application (₹1,017 for NRI), and optional nominee director service (₹15,000–₹25,000/year if required). International wire transfer accepted for all payments.
After registering the Pvt Ltd in Mumbai, what ongoing compliance does an NRI need to do?
Annual compliance for NRI-owned Mumbai Pvt Ltd includes India-side filings: (1) Annual ROC returns: AOC-4 (financial statements) + MGT-7 (annual return) — both due within 60 days of AGM; (2) India Income Tax Return — due July 31 or October 31 depending on audit requirement; (3) DIR-3 KYC for all directors — annual by September 30; (4) FEMA FLA return if foreign investment exceeds threshold — July 15 annually; (5) Board meetings — minimum 4 per year; (6) GST quarterly/monthly returns if turnover exceeds ₹20L; (7) Statutory audit — mandatory for all Pvt Ltd companies. Our Annual Compliance package covers all these for ₹X/year customized to your company's transaction volume.
