LLP Form 11 & DIR-3 KYC Deadlines
These crucial annual corporate compliance deadlines fall under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) for the Financial Year ending March 31, 2026.
1. LLP Form 11 (Annual Return)
What is it? The mandatory annual statement providing details of the LLP’s management, partners, and contributions.
Who needs to file? All Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) registered in India, irrespective of whether they did active business or earned any profit during FY 2025–26.
Penalty for Delay: Failing to file by June 30 attracts a statutory late fee of Rs.100 per day for each day the default continues, with no maximum ceiling for old defaults or standard tier-based penalties for newer LLP rules.
2. DIR-3 KYC (Director's Verification)
What is it for ? The mandatory annual Know Your Customer (KYC) verification to keep the Director Identification Number (DIN) active.
Who needs to file? Every individual who holds a DIN (or Designated Partner Identification Number - DPIN) as of March 31, 2026.
If personal details have changed, use Form DIR-3 KYC.
If the details (mobile, email, address) remain the same as last year, perform a quick verification via DIR-3 KYC Web.
Penalty for Delay: If missed, the DIN gets deactivated, completely blocking the individual from acting as a director or signing documents. Reactivating a deactivated DIN requires a steep statutory penalty of Rs.5,000.
