Private Limited Company Registration

Typically 7–10 working days once all documents are ready and KYC is verified. Actual timing depends on MCA processing and whether the Registrar raises any clarification. Your portal separates our turnaround from official processing time.

There is no minimum paid-up capital requirement. You can start with any amount; many companies begin with ₹1 lakh authorised capital, but it is your choice based on your plans.

At least 2 directors and 2 shareholders. The same two people can be both directors and shareholders. At least one director must be resident in India.

A Private Limited Company needs at least two people. If you're a sole founder, a One Person Company (OPC) may suit you better — the AI Advisor can help you decide.

No. Our packages are professional fees. The MCA form fee is nil at or below ₹15,00,000 authorised capital and is capital-linked above that — it does not vary by state. Stamp duty does vary by state, from about ₹41 to ₹10,025 at ₹1 lakh capital. Both are billed at actuals and itemised before payment.

SPICe+ is the MCA's integrated online form for incorporating a company. It covers name reservation, incorporation, PAN, TAN and — via AGILE-PRO — GST, EPFO, ESIC and bank account in one flow.

No. A residential address can be used as the registered office, provided you have valid address proof and a No-Objection Certificate from the owner.

Yes. Foreign nationals and NRIs can be directors and shareholders, subject to FEMA rules. At least one director must be resident in India, and foreign documents must be notarised/apostilled.

A DIN (Director Identification Number) is a unique number every director needs. A DSC (Digital Signature Certificate) is used to sign forms electronically. We arrange both as part of incorporation.

Your Certificate of Incorporation with CIN, company PAN and TAN, MOA, AOA, DINs and DSCs, plus a master data sheet and a post-incorporation compliance checklist.

Not automatically. GST is required once you cross the turnover threshold or meet specific conditions (e.g., inter-state supply or e-commerce). We can register you via AGILE-PRO if you choose.

It's the declaration of commencement of business, filed within 180 days of incorporation after subscribers pay in their share capital. You must file it before starting operations.

The first statutory auditor must be appointed by the board within 30 days of incorporation, and the appointment is intimated to the RoC via Form ADT-1.

Mainly AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7 (annual return) each year, statutory audit, board meetings, DIR-3 KYC for directors, and income tax/GST returns as applicable.

Two charges apply. MCA's additional filing fee is ₹100 per day per form with no cap, and sections 92(5) and 137(3) each add a penalty of ₹10,000 plus ₹100 per day, capped at ₹2,00,000 for the company and ₹50,000 for an officer in default. Persistent default can also disqualify directors and lead to strike-off.

Yes, through a shareholder resolution and MCA filing. It involves a fresh name approval and updates to the MOA, so it's best to choose carefully at the start.

Yes. Directors can be added or removed by filing DIR-12 with supporting resolutions. We handle these MCA changes as a separate service.

Yes. Registration is online and pan-India. Stamp duty and some fees vary by the state of the registered office.

Companies are taxed at corporate rates, which can be lower than individual slab rates for higher incomes. New manufacturing companies may qualify for concessional rates. Consult an expert for your situation.

Yes, conversion is possible subject to conditions under the Companies Act. It's a distinct process from fresh incorporation — talk to an expert about eligibility.

No. Directors manage the company; shareholders own it. A person can be one, the other, or both. You decide the structure.

Authorised capital is the maximum share capital the company can issue; paid-up capital is what shareholders have actually paid in. You can keep paid-up capital low and increase it later.

Yes, provided the activities are covered by the objects in your MOA. We draft the objects to give you reasonable flexibility.

Documents are stored in a private vault with time-limited access — never as public links. We don't scrape government systems, and access is role-based.

No. AI assists with document checks, checklists and drafting. A qualified professional reviews the work and the final filing before submission.

Yes. We help you understand the notice, gather the right evidence and prepare a response within the deadline, with AI explaining the notice in plain language.

We provide two name options and pre-screen for likely conflicts. If both are rejected, we re-file with fresh options; government re-submission charges may apply.

Yes. Incorporation via AGILE-PRO can initiate a bank account, and we guide you through the documentation banks typically require.

Yes. The Private Limited structure supports employee stock option plans, which is a key reason startups choose it over an LLP.

Incorporation creates the legal entity; Startup India / DPIIT recognition is a separate registration that unlocks specific benefits. You can do both.

Plan for annual audit, ROC filing fees, accounting and any GST/tax filing. Our Growth and Pro packages bundle the first-year setup so there are fewer surprises.

Yes. Office changes within a city, across cities or across states are all possible via MCA filings, with the process depending on the type of change.

A common seal is optional under current law. We can guide you on the basic stationery, registers and statutory displays your company should maintain.

It means the company continues to exist regardless of changes in its members or directors — ownership and management can change without dissolving the company.

Pick a package or talk to an expert. Share your founder and office details, and we'll send your exact document checklist and begin name approval the same day.
