Solution

The difference between limited liability partnership (LLP) and a partnership firm.
(1) A Limited Liability Partnership is governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008, whereas Partnership Firm is governed by the Partnership Act 1932.
(2) In LLP all partners have limited liability. It means that the personal property of the partners cannot be attached or used for paying off the debts and liabilities of the LLB However, in Partnership firm the liability of partners is unlimited and it is joint and several. It means in the case of insolvency. Of the firm personal property of the partners are attached and used to pay off the debts of the firm
(3) In LLP minimum number of partners is 2 and there is no limit on the maximum number of partners. While in Partnership firm minimum number of partners is 2 and the case of general business, the maximum number of partners is 50.
(4) LLP has separate legal status distinct from its members, i.e. a body corporate. Whereas the partnership firm has no separate legal status distinct from its members. There is no distinction between partners and their firms.
