Company & LLP Closure Filing
Winding down a company or LLP that's no longer operating? Leegal manages the strike-off or winding-up filing so you can close cleanly.
Ways to Close a Company or LLP
An inactive company can typically apply for a simplified strike-off (removal from the register), while an LLP has its own separate winding-up/strike-off process, each with its own eligibility conditions and filing requirements.
Both routes generally require clearing outstanding liabilities, filing overdue returns, and obtaining consent from directors/partners and, in some cases, creditors, before the entity can be formally closed.
| Company Strike Off | LLP Winding Up/Strike Off |
|---|---|
| Filed via the applicable ROC strike-off form | Filed via the LLP's own strike-off form |
| Requires no pending liabilities or litigation | Requires no pending liabilities or litigation |
| Board and shareholder approval needed | Consent of all partners generally needed |
| Company name removed from the register once approved | LLP name removed from the register once approved |

Frequently Asked Questions
Can any inactive company apply for strike-off?
Generally yes, provided it has no pending liabilities, litigation, or specific disqualifying conditions. Our team confirms eligibility during your consultation.
What happens to pending liabilities before closure?
These generally need to be cleared or settled before the strike-off application can be filed.
Is closing a company different from closing an LLP?
Yes, they follow separate legal frameworks and forms, though the underlying idea — formally removing the entity from the register — is similar.
How long does the strike-off process take?
It depends on documentation readiness and Registrar processing time; overdue filings, if any, need to be cleared first, which can add time.
Can a struck-off company be revived later?
In certain circumstances, a struck-off company can apply for revival within a specified period, though this is a separate, more involved process.
