Question 1

How long does company registration take in India?

Accepted Answer

Expect 10–15 working days for a Private Limited Company (DIN, DSC, name approval, Certificate of Incorporation), 7–10 days for an OPC, and 10–12 days for an LLP. Post-incorporation formalities — PAN, TAN, GST registration, bank account — add roughly 5–7 more days. We handle the entire process end-to-end and set expectations based on real MCA processing times.

Question 2

What is the minimum capital required to register a company?

Accepted Answer

After the Companies Act 2013 amendment, there is no minimum paid-up capital requirement for Private Limited Companies or OPCs. You can start with ₹1. In practice, most startups begin with ₹1–10 lakh authorised capital. MCA government fees start from ₹1,000 for up to ₹1 lakh authorised capital. LLPs similarly have no minimum capital requirement.

Question 3

What documents are needed for LLP 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.

Question 5

Why choose Indus Tax?

Accepted Answer

Clients choose Indus Tax for one reason: every filing is CA-reviewed, with scope and cost agreed upfront so there are no surprises. Most cases turn around in 3–7 business days, with WhatsApp support the whole way — income tax, GST, NRI taxation, company registration and corporate compliance, all handled under one roof.
