Frequently Asked Questions — Company Formation & Registration

Which business structure should I choose?

It depends on your goals. Pvt Ltd: limited liability, easy to raise capital, best for startups. LLP: limited liability, lower compliance, best for professional services. OPC: single owner, limited liability. Partnership: simple, no limited liability. We advise based on your business objectives.

How long does company registration take?

Company registration typically takes 15-25 working days: name approval (2-3 days), DIN and DSC (1-2 days), filing of SPICe+ (3-5 days), and certificate of incorporation (7-10 days). We handle the entire process end-to-end.

What is the minimum capital required for a Pvt Ltd?

There is no minimum capital requirement for a Private Limited Company in India. You can incorporate with any amount of capital, even Rs 1. However, the registration fee varies with authorized capital. Most startups incorporate with Rs 1-10 lakh authorized capital.

What is the difference between MOA and AOA?

Memorandum of Association (MOA) defines the company scope, objectives, and relationship with outsiders. Articles of Association (AOA) defines internal rules, management, and governance of the company. Both are required for incorporation and can be amended later by special resolution.

Do I need a lawyer for company registration?

While you can file incorporation papers yourself through the MCA portal, a corporate lawyer ensures the MOA and AOA are properly drafted, compliance requirements are met, and post-incorporation compliance is set up. This prevents future legal and compliance issues.
