Got this piece of info from another forum !
Laxmikant and Pyarelal got an opportunity for the first time to give music independently in the film Parasmani directed by Babubhai Mistry in 1963. Though technically they had given music to 5 films before Parasmani, all these 5 films either got shelved or were never released in theaters! This was because all the 5 were B-graders and had tendencies to run into financial and post-production problems. Since the earlier films were never released, LP faced a lot of flak from within the industry. Certain directors and well known lyricists were not ready to work with them at that time. LP though unhappy about it were undeterred by the same. Music was not compromised on at any cost! On the contrary, it is a well established fact that in spite of the films' financial constraints, LP at their own expense got their tunes sung only from the best( Grade 1 singers).
LP records stated the music director's name as Laxmikant-Pyarelal mistook by many at that time to be a single person.
The rhythmic music given by LP for Babubhai Mistry's B-Grader mythological film Parasmani became immensely popular. Songs like Hastaa Hua Nurani Chehera, Wo Jab Yaad Aaye, Mere Dil Mein Halki Si from this film are hummed by people 40 years later even to this day.
It was the film Parasmani that gave them their first break in 1963. The Lata Mangeshkar-Kamal Barot duet 'Hansta hua noorani chehra' remained steadfast at the no.1 position of Binaca Geet Mala for weeks. It was the beginning of duo's long-lasting and extremely rewarding association with Lata Mangeshkar.

Haven't downloaded the file so not sure if the info is contained within, but a website that used to be around that documented hindi film milestones had this to say:
Same website also notes:
QUOTE
Jal Bin Macchli Nritya Bin Bijli (1971): This V Shantaram-Laxmikant Pyarelal-Majrooh-Lata-Mukesh musical became Hindi cinema's first music score to be recorded in stereophonic sound.
Mukesh's oldies are just awesome, imagine how much more awesome they would have been if recorded in stereo. Leave to LP to lead the way into this new arena. Same website also notes:
QUOTE
Karz (1980): Om shanti Om became the first song to be recorded by Laxmikant-Pyarelal in four-track stereophonic sound.
