In accordance with sub-section (1) of section 24 of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008:

"A person may cease to be a partner of a limited liability partnership in accordance with an agreement with the other partners or, in the absence of agreement with the other partners as to cessation of being a partner, by giving a notice in writing of not less than thirty days to the other partners of his intention to resign as partner."

Form 13 (Specimen of notice of cessation by a ceasing partner to other partners) is prescribed under the Limited Liability Partnership Rules, 2009. (see the screenshot from the rules below for Form 13)

A designated partner, of a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) company, who wants to resign from his position in LLP, should write a resignation letter only in the format prescribed under the law i.e. Form 13.

Check the MCA site for any further amendments to the Form 13 through amendments in 2009 Rules.

A copy of the signed Form 13 as submitted by the designated partner serves as a "Evidence of cessation" from his position in the LLP and is attached to e-Form 4 or 4A for submission at MCA portal to intimate the event to the concerned Registrar of Companies (ROC).
