Question 1

How long does company registration take in India?

Accepted Answer

Timelines: Private Limited Company incorporation takes 10–15 working days (covering DIN, DSC, name approval and the MCA Certificate of Incorporation); OPC is faster at 7–10 days; LLP falls in between at 10–12 days. Add another 5–7 days for post-incorporation steps like PAN, TAN, GST and opening a bank account. We manage the full process and give you a realistic timeline based on the current MCA queue.

Question 2

What is the minimum capital required to register a company?

Accepted Answer

There's no minimum paid-up capital requirement for a Private Limited Company or OPC since the Companies Act 2013 amendment — technically you could start with ₹1. Most startups in practice choose ₹1–10 lakh authorised capital. MCA government fees begin at ₹1,000 for authorised capital up to ₹1 lakh. LLPs also carry no minimum capital requirement.

Question 3

What documents are needed for Company Registration?

Accepted Answer

For directors/shareholders: Aadhaar, PAN, passport-size photo, address proof (bank statement or utility bill — less than 2 months old). For registered office: utility bill + NOC from the property owner. Our CA team shares a complete, case-specific checklist within 1 hour of your inquiry.

Question 4

Pvt Ltd Company vs LLP vs OPC — which is right for me?

Accepted Answer

Private Limited Company suits startups with multiple founders planning to raise VC funding (up to 200 shareholders allowed). LLP works well for professionals — CAs, lawyers, architects — who want limited liability without heavy compliance. OPC fits solo founders wanting a corporate structure with limited liability. Expect annual compliance costs of roughly ₹15,000–₹30,000 for Pvt Ltd, ₹10,000–₹20,000 for LLP, and ₹10,000–₹20,000 for OPC.
