How to Register a Company in India?
There are many foreign companies engaging in trading and manufacturing activities in India. Do you want to take advantage of their financial growth?
The Reserve Bank of India can accommodate your business within their country as long as you follow their registration laws. We can show you the right steps in starting a company in India now.
The first step in registering a company in India is to have your name approved by the ROC (Registrar of Companies) in the State/Union Territory. This approval is subject to certain conditions, for example, your company name should be unique and there should be no duplicate company name in India at the time of your application. In the case of a public company, the name “Limited” should be included at the end of the company name while for private limited, the term “Private Limited,” must be explicitly included there.

The ROC in different states primarily manages the following:
- Penalty action against companies
- Eliminating company names
- Alteration of companies from public to private and vice versa
- Change of fiscal year
- Change of company name
- Integration of companies
Fees payable would depend on the company’s nominal capital to be registered and paid either in cash or postal order. The documents and requirements to be submitted should be with ROC within six months of the company’s incorporation. Under domestic law, the companies are required by India to withhold tax from certain payments such as winning from horse races/lottery/games, commission, payments to contractors, professional fees, interest, and salaries paid to employees.
