Set up a company in India

In India, registering a new company is required by law and falls under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Without having to physically visit government offices, entrepreneurs can now incorporate their businesses from any location thanks to a fully digital platform that has made the entire registration process simple and easy to use.

To make sure your company conforms with all legal requirements, the incorporation process entails a number of crucial steps. In order to sign documents electronically, the proposed directors and authorized signatories must first obtain a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC). The next step is to acquire a Director Identification Number (DIN), which is a special identification number needed by anyone planning to serve as a director in an Indian company.

Following the completion of the necessary prerequisites, the company's name needs to be reserved using either the integrated SPICe+ form or the RUN (Reserve Unique Name) service. The SPICe+ (Simplified Proforma for Incorporating a Company Electronically Plus) form, which combines multiple services like PAN and TAN application, GSTIN registration, ESIC and EPFO registration, and even bank account opening, is then used to file the incorporation application.

The company's goals and governance structure must also be outlined in the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA), which must be prepared and submitted with the incorporation paperwork.

Once verified and approved by the Registrar of Companies (RoC), the applicant receives the Certificate of Incorporation (CoI), a unique Corporate Identity Number (CIN), and other essential credentials, officially recognizing the business as a legal entity under Indian law. This digital registration framework not only simplifies the incorporation journey but also fosters transparency, efficiency, and legal compliance — giving startups and businesses a secure and structured foundation to thrive in the Indian economic landscape.
