      Solution

      Correct Answer: 2 The LLP Act, 2008, was specifically designed to provide the benefits of a corporate body (limited liability and perpetual succession) while retaining the flexibility of a partnership. To maintain this "corporate" nature, it was necessary to legally decouple it from the old partnership law.
