Company Registration & Business Structures We Assist With
Understand the broad characteristics of common business structures before deciding how your business should be established.
Private Limited Company Registration
A Private Limited Company is a separate legal entity incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013. It provides a formal corporate structure with limited liability and perpetual succession, subject to applicable legal requirements.
- Suitable for many startups and growth-oriented businesses
- Separate legal identity
- Limited liability structure
- Can support structured ownership and future investment
One Person Company (OPC) Registration
An OPC enables an eligible individual to establish a company with a separate legal identity and limited liability. An OPC has one member and requires nomination in accordance with applicable company-law requirements.
- Designed for eligible single-member businesses
- Separate legal identity
- Limited liability structure
- Company form with a single member
Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Registration
An LLP is a separate legal entity governed by the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008. It combines limited liability with a partnership-based management framework.
- Commonly considered by professional and service businesses
- Separate legal identity
- Limited liability framework
- Partnership-based management structure
Section 8 Company Registration
A Section 8 Company is established for eligible charitable, educational, social, environmental and other not-for-profit objectives. Its profits are applied towards promoting its stated objects rather than distributed as dividends to members.
- Non-profit initiatives
- Educational and charitable activities
- Social welfare projects
- Eligible community and environmental objectives
Partnership Firm Registration Support
A Partnership Firm is formed when two or more persons agree to carry on a business and share its profits according to their partnership arrangement. It may be considered for certain small, family-managed or traditional businesses.
A Partnership Firm is not a company incorporated under the Companies Act. It is included here as an alternative business structure that may be considered when deciding how to establish a business.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about company registration and business incorporation in India.
How many persons are required for a Private Limited Company?
A private company is formed by two or more persons. A Private Limited Company must also have a minimum of two directors, subject to the other requirements of the Companies Act, 2013.
Can one person start a company in India?
Yes. An eligible person may form a One Person Company (OPC). An OPC has one member and its incorporation framework also requires a nominee in accordance with applicable provisions.
What are the minimum requirements for an LLP?
An LLP must have at least two partners and at least two individuals as designated partners. At least one designated partner must satisfy the applicable resident-in-India requirement.
Is a resident director required for an Indian company?
Every company must have at least one director who satisfies the India-stay requirement prescribed under the Companies Act, 2013. The applicable requirement should be checked for the relevant financial year and circumstances.
Can an NRI or foreign national be involved in an Indian company?
Foreign nationals can participate as subscribers or directors in Indian-company incorporation subject to applicable company-law, identification, documentation and other regulatory requirements. Overseas documents may require notarisation, apostille or consular authentication depending on the circumstances and country of execution.
Is there a fixed minimum paid-up capital for a Private Limited Company?
The earlier statutory minimum paid-up-capital requirement for a private company was removed. The appropriate capital should nevertheless be determined according to the proposed business, ownership structure and applicable requirements.
Which business structure should I choose?
The appropriate structure depends on factors such as the number of owners, nature of business, liability exposure, taxation, funding plans, compliance requirements and future objectives.
Is a Private Limited Company suitable for every business?
Not necessarily. A Private Limited Company provides a formal corporate structure and limited liability, but it also involves ongoing statutory compliance. An OPC, LLP, partnership or another structure may be more appropriate depending on the circumstances.
Can a residential address be used as a registered office?
A residential premises may generally be used as a registered office subject to appropriate address evidence, owner consent where required and applicable regulatory requirements.
Is GST registration automatically included with company registration?
No. GST registration is a separate registration. Whether GST registration is required depends on applicable GST provisions, the nature of supplies, turnover and other relevant circumstances.
How long does company incorporation take?
The timeline depends on document readiness, name approval, regulatory processing and whether clarification or resubmission is required. Approval timelines can therefore vary.
Does company name approval provide trademark protection?
No. Company name approval and trademark registration are separate processes. Trademark registration may need to be considered separately for brand protection.
What compliance may be required after incorporation?
Depending on the entity and circumstances, requirements may include bank-account setup, capital-related actions, auditor appointment, commencement-related filing, statutory records, accounting, tax registrations, annual filings and event-based compliance.
