What is the minimum number of members and directors required?

A private limited company requires a minimum of 2 members and 2 directors under Sections 3(1)(c) and 149(1) of the Companies Act, 2013. At least one director must be a resident Indian who has stayed in India for not less than 182 days in the relevant financial year.

What is the government fee for incorporation?

Filing fee on SPICe+ (INC-32) is Nil for authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh. Name reservation (Part A) costs ₹1,000. Stamp duty on MoA and AoA varies by state — typically ₹2,000–₹2,100 for Delhi/Maharashtra/Karnataka at ₹1 lakh authorised capital.

What documents are mandatory for the registered office?

Latest utility bill (electricity/water/gas/telephone) not older than 2 months, NOC from the owner, and the rent agreement (if rented) are mandatory under Rule 16 of Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014. INC-22 is auto-subsumed in SPICe+ Part B.

How long does MCA take to issue the Certificate of Incorporation?

There is no statutory SLA. In practice, RoC issues the COI within 2–7 working days if the application is in order and no resubmission is raised.

Can a foreign national be a director or shareholder?

Yes. A foreign national can subscribe to the MoA and be appointed director. The passport must be apostilled (Hague countries) or consularly notarised with apostille, and address proof must be translated in English and apostilled.

Is GST registration automatic with incorporation?

No. GSTIN is allotted only if the applicant opts for it in the linked AGILE-PRO-S form. If not opted, separate GST registration must be applied for within 30 days of crossing the turnover threshold or starting inter-state supply.

What is the penalty for late filing of AOC-4 and MGT-7?

Under Section 450 of the Companies Act, 2013, a flat ₹100 per day penalty applies for default. Additional fee per Table under the Companies (Registration Offices and Fees) Rules, 2014 also applies — typically ₹100 per day for first 15 days, scaling up to ₹300 per day beyond 90 days.

What is the DIN allotment procedure under SPICe+?

Up to 3 directors' DINs are auto-allotted through SPICe+ Part B at no fee. For a 4th or subsequent director, a fee of ₹1,000 per DIN applies and Form DIR-3 is filed separately.

About this service

A Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) is the most common form of incorporated business in India. It offers limited liability to its shareholders, a separate legal identity distinct from its promoters, and perpetual succession. The incorporation is governed by Section 3(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013. The filing instrument is the SPICe+ form (GSR 1210(E) of 2018), which integrates name reservation, incorporation, DIN allotment, PAN, TAN, EPFO, ESIC, GSTIN, and bank account opening in a single electronic filing on the MCA V3 portal with jurisdiction under RoC Bangalore.

Common mistakes to avoid

Avoidable filing errors that cause delays or rejection. Each can be resolved before submission.

1
Proposing a company name identical or phonetically similar to an existing trademark
Why: CRC rejects names that infringe on registered marks under Rule 8 of Companies Rules, causing 5–7 days delay.
Fix: We run a comprehensive MCA and Trademark Public Search before filing SPICe+ Part A.
2
Submitting utility bills older than 2 months for the registered office address
Why: Strict MCA guidelines mandate electricity/gas/water bills must be dated within 60 days of submission.
Fix: Our team verifies bill issue dates before portal submission and requests recent statements.
3
Missing the 180-day deadline to file INC-20A (Commencement of Business)
Why: Bank account must be opened and paid-up capital deposited before INC-20A can be certified.
Fix: We coordinate current account activation on Day 12 and file INC-20A immediately.
