"Manufacturing & allied activities were restricted in LLPs vide OM (Office Memorandum)... dated 06.03.2019. This OM invoking the restriction regarding manufacturing & allied activities has been withdrawn with immediate effect," the ministry said in a message posted on its website.
In the memorandum issued on March 6, the ministry had said that LLPs as body corporates have been set up for the purposes of carrying out business activities related to the service sector.
"Incorporation of LLPs and conversion of LLPs with the proposed business activity (ies), including manufacturing & allied activities are not be allowed," the memorandum had said.

The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) had also flagged concerns about the memorandum to the ministry.
