Hi Friends,

While applying for PAN for a LLP, should the application be under category of "Firm" or a "Company"?

One has to select this category while applying for PAN, and LLP is a hi-breed between partnership firms and a company hence my query.

In general, is LLP to be treated as Firm or a Company?

Thanks
