"having received" - is it grammatically correct?

Tapas Mandal"Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for the same." Is the sentence construction correct for this case? I think it should be like this - "After receiving your letter this morning........."

Both are grammatically fine.

Mister MicawberBoth are grammatically fine.

Mister, I would be thankful to you if you please explain how to construct these kind of sentences,
I mean if you can explain it from the subject + verb + object perspective.

Having + past participle = the perfect participle
Have + past participle = the perfect tenses

The perfect participle can be used as a modifier. It means an action recently completed relative to the main verb in the sentence. In constructions like these, the "subject" of the perfect participle is the same as the noun it modifies.

Thank you AlpheccaStars for the explanation.

Also, is it possible to think like this way?

Can we use 'having' as a sub-ordinating conjunction as the sentences are behaving as dependent clause? I mean in the above sentence if we assume there are two sentences, like:
1. We have received your letter this morning.
2. We are writing to thank you for the same.

No. It is not a conjunction. That is an entirely different grammatical construct.

Having + pp is the head word of a participial phrase. It is a non-finite verb in a reduced adjectival clause, if you like that terminology better. The p

Hello dear Alphecca Starts,
Is it possible to use the following when I'm feeling thankful to someone for doing something for me?

- Thanks to you for having replied or Thank you for having replied.

one of the teachers (members) on the forum said - No, we can't use/ say "having replied". We should say 'Thanks for your reply or Thank you for your reply'.

LaboriousThank you for having replied.

Yes, but it is a different construction than the topic of this thread.
A participle (and phrases with a participle head word) are modifiers. They modify another noun in the sentence.

Thank you for having replied so soon.

Thank you for the letter.

So what functio

Dear madam,

I don't know why but it (Thank you for having replied) doesn't sound odd to my ears. But I'm not a native speaker of English language. I wish I were, but I'm not.

Not a well-considered answer, I'm afraid. I hope it was a different forum.

Dear sir Mister Micawber,

So, we can, indeed, say those sentences?

Thank you.
