    Solution

    Correct Answer: Option 3. The "Designated Partner" is a unique feature of the LLP structure, acting as the primary point of contact for regulatory compliance, similar to a Director in a company. The "Two Individual" Rule Every LLP must have at least two designated partners who are individuals. If a body corporate (like a Company or another LLP) is a partner in the LLP, it must nominate an individual to act as its designated partner.
