Producer Company Registration

A producer company is a corporate entity established primarily for activities related to production, harvesting, procurement, grading, pooling, handling, marketing, selling, or export of primary produce of its members, or import of goods or services for their benefit. These activities typically revolve around agriculture and post-harvesting operations, aimed at empowering farmers.
The formation of a producer company can be initiated by 10 or more individual producers, two or more producer institutions, or a combination thereof totalling 10 or more producers and producer institutions. It operates solely with equity capital and mandates a minimum of five directors, with an authorized capital requirement set at Rs. 5 lakhs. Notably, a producer company cannot be converted into a public company but has the option to convert into a multistate cooperative society.
Producer companies encompass a range of activities including production, marketing, technical services, financing, and infrastructure services that benefit producers. The registration process for a producer company mirrors that of a private limited company, ensuring compliance with legal procedures and regulatory frameworks.
This structured approach underpins the establishment of producer companies, facilitating their role in supporting agricultural and rural development initiatives through organized and corporate-driven efforts.

Producer Company Registration Process

The registration process for a Producer Company involves several crucial steps:

Obtaining DSC and DIN

The initial step is to secure Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) and Director Identification Numbers (DIN) for the proposed directors. These are essential for electronically signing and filing company registration documents with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Our representatives facilitate this process based on scanned documents provided by the directors, typically completing DSC and DIN issuance within 1 to 2 days.

Name Approval

Next, a list comprising a minimum of one and a maximum of six proposed company names is submitted to the MCA. This step ensures compliance with naming guidelines and allows for name availability verification. Name Approval from the MCA is generally obtained within 2 to 3 working days.

Drafting MOA and AOA Electronically

The Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA) are electronically drafted using the SPICe MOA (INC-33) and SPICe AOA (INC-34) forms. This process typically requires 2 to 3 days to complete, detailing the company's objectives, operational structure, and internal regulations.

Company Registration

Subsequently, the drafted e-MOA and e-AOA, along with the SPICe Form INC-32, are submitted to the MCA for incorporation. This submission also includes forms 49A and 49B, which are mandatory attachments. Upon receipt, the MCA reviews the application and typically approves the incorporation within 5 to 7 days, subject to their processing timelines. It's crucial to ensure timely submission of forms 49A and 49B within 2 days of filing SPICe (INC-32) to avoid invalidation of the incorporation application.
These procedural steps ensure that the registration of the Producer Company complies with statutory requirements, facilitating its legal establishment and operational commencement under Indian corporate law.
