Incorporation
End-to-end Private Limited Company incorporation: name reservation, the full SPICe+ filing, e-MoA/e-AoA, and DIN/PAN/TAN/GSTIN, handled for you.
A Private Limited Company gives you a structure built for equity, hiring, and raising money. But SPICe+ is a dense, multi-part filing, and a rejected name or a mismatched e-MoA/e-AoA can cost you weeks. We handle the entire filing end to end, from name reservation to your Certificate of Incorporation, PAN, TAN, and GSTIN application.
A Private Limited Company is a separate legal entity that can issue equity shares, which is why it's the default structure for founders planning to raise venture or angel funding. Most institutional investors specifically want to invest in a company built for share issuance.
It comes with a heavier compliance load than an LLP (board meetings, statutory registers, annual ROC filings), so it's the right call when you're planning to raise outside capital, build a cap table, or eventually run an ESOP. It isn't automatically the right call for every small service business.
We check your proposed name(s) against existing companies, LLPs, and trademarks before filing, then handle SPICe+ Part A and Part B end to end.
Objects, share capital structure, and governance clauses drafted for your specific company rather than a generic template, and filed as part of SPICe+ Part B.
DIN for up to three first directors is allotted free through SPICe+ itself. A fourth or later director needs a separate DIR-12 filing, priced separately, see below.
Filed alongside your incorporation application; issuance typically follows your Certificate of Incorporation, though we don't guarantee an exact turnaround since that depends on the GST officer's review.
Every proposed director needs to sign a DIR-2 consent to act. We collect and file these as part of the SPICe+ bundle.
A Private Limited Company is generally the right choice if you're planning to raise venture or angel funding, want to issue an ESOP, or need to bring on shareholders beyond the founding team. The structure is built for issuing and transferring equity. It carries more ongoing compliance than an LLP (board meetings, statutory registers, annual filings), so if you don't need equity-based fundraising, an LLP may be the simpler and cheaper structure to run.
Every application needs the office's full address and a recent utility bill (not older than 2 months). What else you need depends on the ownership scenario, using the same matrix as LLP incorporation:
| Office scenario | Rent agreement | NOC from owner |
|---|---|---|
| Self-owned | Not required | Not required |
| Owned by a parent, sibling, or friend | Not required | Required |
| Rented | Required | Required |
| Coworking space | Provider service agreement | Required (or provider-issued equivalent) |
| Virtual office | Provider service agreement | Provider-issued equivalent |
Pvt Ltd incorporation and ongoing compliance sit under the Companies Act, 2013, alongside the Income-tax Act, GST law, and (where relevant) FEMA for companies with foreign shareholders. MCA forms and filing requirements change periodically, so we always check the current version before submitting anything on your behalf.
Name reservation through SPICe+ Part A carries a ₹1,000 government fee per application, non-refundable even if the name is rejected, so get your options right the first time. A Class 3 Digital Signature Certificate typically runs ₹1,000–₹2,000 per director for a 2-year validity through a market vendor. That's a market price rather than a fixed MCA charge, so treat it as indicative.

We collect director details and documents, then get a Digital Signature Certificate issued for every director.
Common mistakes founders make
It's the right call if you're planning to raise venture or angel funding, run an ESOP, or bring on outside shareholders. The structure is built for issuing equity. If none of that applies, an LLP may carry less ongoing compliance for the same operating business.
At least 2 directors and 2 shareholders. The same people can hold both roles. At least one director must be a resident of India.
It depends on name approval and how quickly your documents come together. We don't guarantee a fixed turnaround since it depends on Registrar review, but we move your filing forward as soon as everything's in place.
The most time-sensitive next step is INC-20A (the commencement-of-business declaration due within 180 days of incorporation). We offer this as a dedicated follow-on service so it doesn't slip through the cracks.
Yes. SPICe+ allots DIN for up to 3 first directors for free. Adding a director afterward requires a separate DIR-12 filing, which we also offer as a standalone service.
Only if your office details change. Filing your registered office correctly at incorporation, or shortly after if you started from a correspondence address, generally requires an INC-22 filing. We offer this as a standalone service if you need it.

Proprietorship vs OPC vs Private Limited: When to Stop Being a Proprietor
A proprietorship has no separate legal identity from its owner, no share capital, and no eligibility for Startup India recognition. OPC and private limited both fix that, but only a private limited company can bring in outside investors and issue ESOPs at scale.

We prepare your share transfer instrument (SH-4), confirm the transfer is properly approved under your Articles, and get the stamp duty calculation right at the current rate. Documentation and filing facilitation only. This is a company-secretarial act rather than an ROC e-form filing.

We prepare and file your company's STK-2 voluntary strike-off application: board and shareholder resolutions, the STK-3 indemnity bond and STK-4 affidavit for every director, and coordination of your CA-certified statement of accounts, so your defunct Pvt Ltd company is legally closed instead of quietly racking up filing penalties. This is only for a company that can honestly certify nil assets and nil liabilities. If yours has real assets or debts to settle, you need a registered Insolvency Professional instead, and we'll tell you that upfront rather than take on a filing we can't honestly deliver.
