Overview
A private limited company is a separate legal person under the Companies Act, 2013. Its shareholders' liability is limited to the unpaid amount on their shares, it can raise equity from investors, and it carries on even when owners or directors change. That makes it the usual choice for startups and businesses that plan to grow, hire or bring in investors.
Incorporation is done online on the MCA portal through the SPICe+ web form. Part A reserves the name; Part B covers incorporation along with the director identification numbers (DIN), the company's PAN and TAN, and registrations such as EPFO and ESIC that are bundled with it. The memorandum and articles are filed electronically with it, and the linked AGILE-PRO-S form handles items such as GSTIN (if needed) and the bank account opening request.
Our team collects your details and documents, checks the proposed names, prepares the forms and the constitutional documents, coordinates digital signatures, and follows the application through to the certificate of incorporation. Filings that need a professional's certification are handled by a qualified professional we work with. You stay in control of the information filed in your name.
Who needs it
- Founders starting a business that will raise investment or issue shares (ESOPs)
- Businesses that want limited liability and a separate legal identity
- Proprietors or partners converting an existing business into a company
- Foreign founders or companies setting up an Indian subsidiary (extra approvals may apply)
Documents required
What we usually ask for. Our team confirms the exact list for your case before anything is filed.
- PAN of every director and shareholder (passport for foreign nationals)
- Identity and address proof: Aadhaar, passport, voter ID or driving licence
- A recent bank statement or utility bill of each director (usually not older than two months)
- Proof of the registered office: a recent utility bill, plus a rent agreement or sale deed
- No-objection letter from the owner of the registered office premises
- Passport-size photographs and specimen signatures
- Class 3 digital signature certificates (DSC) for the directors and subscribers
How it works
- 1
Understand your plan
We confirm the number of directors and shareholders, the share capital, the main business activity and the registered office, and tell you what we need from each person.
- 2
Name reservation (SPICe+ Part A)
We check your preferred names against existing companies and registered trade marks and apply for one. An approved name is generally held for 20 days, within which the incorporation part must be filed.
- 3
Documents and signatures
We draft the memorandum and articles of association and the declarations, and arrange digital signatures for everyone who needs to sign.
- 4
Incorporation filing (SPICe+ Part B and linked forms)
The incorporation form is filed with e-MoA, e-AoA and AGILE-PRO-S. DINs, PAN and TAN are applied for in the same filing.
- 5
Certificate of incorporation
Once the Registrar approves, MCA issues the certificate with the company's CIN, PAN and TAN. If the Registrar asks for changes, we prepare and refile the corrections.
- 6
After incorporation
We share the checklist for the first months: opening the bank account, the commencement of business declaration, appointing the first auditor and other early filings.
Typical timeline
There is no fixed statutory deadline for MCA to approve an incorporation. Processing time depends on the Registrar's queue, whether the name is accepted on the first try and whether the Registrar asks for resubmission. A reserved name is generally valid for 20 days for a new company, so the incorporation part must be filed within that window. We share realistic timings once your documents are ready.
