Registering a company means giving your business a separate legal identity with the Registrar of Companies — the ability to own assets, sue and be sued, and raise capital in its own name. The available structures in India include Private Limited Companies, One Person Companies, Section 8 (non-profit) companies, and Limited Liability Partnerships, each with different compliance and tax implications.

How company registration works
General overview of registering a business entity on the MCA portal. Forms and steps vary by structure.
- 1
Choose the right structure
Compare Private Limited, LLP, OPC, and Section 8 on liability, compliance load, taxation, and fundraising to pick the form that fits the business plan.
- 2
Obtain DSC and DIN/DPIN
Designated individuals obtain Digital Signature Certificates and director/partner identification numbers required to sign and file electronically.
- 3
Reserve the business name
Apply for name approval — through SPICe+ Part A for companies or the RUN-LLP service for LLPs — ensuring the name is unique and trademark-safe.
- 4
Draft constitutional documents
Prepare the MOA and AOA for companies, or the LLP agreement for LLPs, setting out objects, capital, and internal governance.
- 5
File and receive the certificate
File the incorporation forms with linked registrations, respond to any resubmission queries, and receive the Certificate of Incorporation with CIN/LLPIN, PAN, and TAN.
