The Member Managed LLC Operating Agreement is a foundational document used when establishing a member-managed limited liability company structure in India. While India primarily recognizes Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) rather than LLCs, this agreement adapts LLC principles to function within Indian legal framework. It's particularly useful for small to medium-sized businesses where owners want to maintain direct control over daily operations while enjoying liability protection. The document covers essential aspects such as capital structure, profit distribution, management rights, transfer restrictions, and dispute resolution mechanisms, all while ensuring compliance with Indian regulations including the Companies Act, 2013 and Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. This agreement is crucial for businesses seeking to establish clear operational guidelines while maintaining flexibility in management structure.
