Strike-Off Document Checklist: Pvt Ltd (STK-2) and LLP (Form 24)

A two-route reference checklist of the pre-conditions and documents you need before filing a voluntary strike-off: Form STK-2 for a Pvt Ltd company, Form 24 for an LLP. Carries the current STK-2 government fee, the time-limited CCFS-2026 discount, and both circulating figures for the LLP fee, so you're not working from a stale number.

Statutory Registers Checklist

The registers most private limited companies need to maintain at the registered office, one tab each, with the governing section, what triggers an update, and space to record who maintains it and when it was last touched.

MSME Delayed-Payment Demand Notice

A fillable demand notice for a registered MSME chasing an overdue payment, stating the section 16 interest claim as the statutory formula, plus the checklist of attachments the Samadhaan ODR filing needs.

Partnership Deed Template

A blank, fillable partnership deed for a firm under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, with the profit-sharing default-rule trap called out explicitly so a silent deed doesn't default to an equal split regardless of capital contribution.

Society Memorandum of Association + Rules & Regulations Template

A blank, fillable Memorandum of Association and matching Rules & Regulations for a society, covering the founding members, a specific objects clause, and the annual governing-body filing most societies forget until the fine lands.

Founders' Agreement Template

A blank, fillable founders' agreement for Indian startups, covering equity, reverse vesting with a buyback right, present-tense IP assignment, and exit. Written for how Indian companies actually hold shares.

MSA & SOW Template

A blank, fillable Master Service Agreement with a matching Statement of Work annexure, covering payment terms with the MSMED 45-day cross-check, present-tense IP assignment, mutual indemnity, liability caps, and termination for a services engagement governed by Indian law.

Offer Letter Template

A blank, fillable offer letter for Indian hires that stays upfront about being the first step, not the finished employment contract, with the acceptance deadline, conditions precedent, and appointment-letter follow-on stated in the letter itself.

Trust Deed Template for a Public Charitable Trust

A blank, fillable trust deed for a public charitable trust, covering the settlor and trustee schedule, an objects clause, trustee powers, and a dissolution clause that sends surplus assets to a similar trust, never to the trustees. Ships with a state-by-state stamp duty and registration guidance note.

LLP Agreement Clause Checklist

The complete list of governance clauses every LLP Agreement needs, plus the most common mistakes that turn a weak agreement into a future dispute.

Form DIR-2: Consent to Act as Director

The written consent every proposed director signs under section 152 of the Companies Act, 2013, filed with SPICe+ on incorporation or with DIR-12 when a director is added later. Blank and fillable.

LLP Subscriber's Sheet Template

The subscriber's sheet every LLP incorporation needs as a FiLLiP attachment. Blank and fillable, with the witness requirements set out, since it has to be attested by a practising CA, CS, or Advocate.

Form 9: Consent to Act as Designated Partner

The written consent every proposed designated partner signs, laid out to follow the MCA's prescribed format, including the declaration about offences connected with forming or managing an LLP or company.

Section 8 Applicant's Declaration (formerly Form INC-15)

A fillable declaration for each individual applicant or subscriber to a proposed Section 8 company, covering the same substance once filed as Form INC-15. Since a January 2023 MCA amendment this is confirmed digitally inside your SPICe+ or INC-12 filing rather than attached as a separate document, so use this to read exactly what you're declaring before you sign.

Board Resolution — Share Allotment

A blank, fillable board resolution approving a share allotment, covering the private-placement, preferential-allotment, or existing-members-only route, with the Section 42(6) bank-account restriction on private-placement proceeds built in. Board approval only, not the special resolution, the PAS-4 offer letter, or the PAS-3 filing — see our share allotment (PAS-3) service for the full sequence.

LLP Partner Documents Checklist

Every piece of information and every document you need from each Designated Partner before you can file an LLP incorporation — plus registered office documents by ownership scenario.

Board Resolution — Share Transfer Approval & Registration

A blank, fillable board resolution approving a share transfer and authorising the register of members to be updated, with a blank field for the stamp duty amount at the correct 0.015% rate, not the stale 0.25% figure still circulating. This resolution is the full internal-approval step; there's no separate MCA e-form for the transfer itself, see our share transfer (SH-4) service for the SH-4 instrument and stamp duty facilitation.

Board Resolution — Registered Office Change (Same State, Same Local Limits)

A blank, fillable board resolution for a registered office change that stays within the same state and the same local limits of the current city, town, or village, authorising the INC-22 filing within 30 days of the effective date of the change. Does not cover a move that crosses local limits within the state, or a move to a different state, see our registered office change service for the interstate route.

Board Resolution — Appointment of Additional Director

A blank, fillable board resolution appointing an additional director under Section 161(1), referencing the DIR-2 consent, DIR-8 declaration, and MBP-1 disclosure already on file, and authorising the DIR-12 filing within 30 days of the effective date of appointment, not the date of this resolution.

LLP Agreement Template

A fillable skeleton LLP Agreement covering all 20 sections a complete agreement needs — bring your own partner details and have it reviewed before use.

TM-A Filing Document Checklist

Everything to gather before filing FORM TM-A, branched by applicant type (individual, partnership, company/LLP) plus the DPIIT/Udyam discount and prior-use-claim documents, so you're not caught short mid-filing.

Sole Proprietorship Declaration / Self-Declaration Affidavit

A fillable self-declaration for proprietors with no GST, Shops & Establishment, or Udyam certificate yet, built to support RBI's single-document KYC exception. Not a government-prescribed form, so the cover note tells you to check acceptance with the specific bank or counterparty first.

IEC Bank Certificate Format (ANF-2A)

A request letter to your bank plus the exact DGFT-prescribed ANF-2A(I) bank certificate checklist, so you can get the certificate issued correctly on the first try instead of it bouncing back for a formatting fix.

Shops & Establishment Registration — Documents & Readiness Checklist

Everything to gather before you apply for Shops & Establishment registration on your state's labour-department portal, sorted by identity, premises, and people documents, with no state-specific fee or timeline figures baked in since those vary and change.

Udyam Registration Data Checklist

Everything the Udyam portal asks for, gathered before you start, including whose Aadhaar it has to be for your entity type and which figures the portal fetches for you from your ITR and GST data.

DPIIT Recognition Document Checklist

What to have ready before you apply for Startup India DPIIT recognition on NSWS, including the eligibility points worth self-checking first. A preparation checklist, not the application form.

Letter of Authorization for GST Registration

A blank, fillable letter appointing a signatory to file your GST REG-01 application and act on registration correspondence afterward, with entity-type variants for proprietorship, partnership/LLP, company, and HUF.
