About Company & LLP Name Search and Reservation
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
Before incorporating, a company name is reserved through RUN (Reserve Unique Name) or Part A of SPICe+, and an LLP name through RUN-LLP. The MCA rejects names identical or too similar to existing companies, LLPs or registered trademarks, and names containing restricted words without approval. A reserved company name is held for 20 days (60 days for a name change); RUN allows two proposed names and one resubmission.
Most name rejections are avoidable: a name that differs from an existing one only by plural, tense, spelling or an added generic word is treated as identical under Rule 8 of the Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014. Words like 'Bank', 'Insurance', 'Board', 'National' or 'Republic' need approval from the relevant regulator or the Central Government.
We search the MCA database and the trademark register together, because a name that clears the MCA but conflicts with someone's trademark invites a rectification order later. Where the brand matters, we file the trademark application alongside the name reservation.
