MCA Defers LLP Registrar of Companies Reorganisation to 16th February 2026

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), exercising powers under sections 68A(1) and 68A(2) of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, has amended its earlier notification dated 23 October 2025 concerning the establishment and territorial jurisdiction of Registrars of Companies (RoCs) for Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs).

Under the original notification, the Central Government had reorganised the RoC framework for LLPs by creating multiple Registrars with clearly demarcated territorial jurisdictions. These Registrars were authorised to handle registration of LLPs and discharge statutory functions under the LLP Act, 2008. The reorganisation included separate RoCs for different zones within the National Capital Territory of Delhi, two RoCs for Uttar Pradesh, multiple RoCs in Maharashtra, and separate RoCs for Kolkata and the rest of West Bengal. The notification initially stipulated that the new RoC structure would come into force from 1 January 2026.

Through the amending notification dated 30 December 2025, the Central Government has deferred the effective date of this reorganisation. The commencement date has been substituted from “1st January, 2026” to “16th February, 2026.” No changes have been made to the jurisdictional boundaries, office locations, or statutory powers of the Registrars of Companies.

Accordingly, the existing RoC arrangements for LLP matters will continue to operate until 15 February 2026, and the newly constituted RoC framework under the LLP Act will become operational from 16 February 2026.
