Private Limited Company Registration: Complete Guide, Process & Pricing

The standard structure for founders planning to raise funding or scale, with limited liability and a separate legal identity. Handled end to end by a chartered accountant or company secretary.

Why this matters

Limited liability protection. Your personal assets stay separate from business debts and obligations.

Easier to raise funding. Investors and venture capitalists prefer the private limited structure.

Separate legal identity. The company can own assets, sign contracts and be sued independently of its owners.

Perpetual succession. The company continues to exist regardless of changes in directors or shareholders.

Stronger credibility. A registered company builds trust with vendors, banks and government tenders.

Who this applies to

• Minimum 2 directors and 2 shareholders (can be the same people)
• At least one director must be an Indian resident
• All directors must be at least 18 years old
• No prior disqualification under the Companies Act
• A registered office address in India

What you'll need to get started

• PAN card of all directors and shareholders
• Aadhaar card or passport as identity proof
• Recent bank statement or utility bill (address proof)
• Passport-size photograph of each director
• Proof of registered office (rent agreement / NOC / utility bill)

Common questions

How long does registration take?

Most private limited registrations are completed within 7–10 working days, depending on document readiness and MCA processing time.

Can I register with just one other person?

Yes — a private limited company needs a minimum of 2 directors and 2 shareholders, and the same two people can hold both roles.

Do I need a physical office?

You need a registered office address in India, but it does not need to be commercial space — a home address with proper proof is acceptable.

What happens after incorporation?

You'll receive your Certificate of Incorporation, PAN and TAN. We also help you open a current account and stay on top of ongoing ROC compliance.

Can foreign nationals be directors?

Yes, with at least one Indian resident director on the board and compliance with FEMA regulations for foreign investment.
