Public Limited Company Registration

A business plan serves as a fundamental document for companies seeking funding, offering investors and financial institutions a detailed blueprint of the company’s objectives and strategies to achieve them. Beyond securing funding, a well-crafted business plan plays a critical role for startups by identifying potential weaknesses in their concepts, market perceptions, and other crucial factors that influence business success.

Public Limited Company Registration Process

Here is a refined and professional version of the registration process for a Private Limited Company:

Obtaining DSC and DIN

Obtaining a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) and Director Identification Number (DIN) is mandatory for the proposed Directors of the Private Limited Company. These are essential for electronically filing company registration documents with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Our representatives will assist in completing the necessary forms online based on scanned documents provided by the directors. DIN and DSC can typically be obtained within 1 to 2 days.

Name Approval

The next step while incorporating a Public Company is to decide on the name of the Company. The name of the Company will be in the form of “ABC Limited”.
The name can be approved in the Form SPICe+ application. Only one preferred name along with the significance of keeping that name can be given in the Form SPICe+ application. If the name gets rejected, another name can be submitted by applying another Form SPICe+ application.
Once the name is approved by the MCA we move on to the next step. Name Approval is usually processed within 2 to 3 working days.

Drafting MOA and AOA Electronically

The Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA) are drafted electronically using SPICe MOA (INC-33) and SPICe AOA (INC-34). This process typically requires 2 to 3 days to complete.

Company Registration

Upon approval of the proposed names, the electronically drafted MOA and AOA are submitted along with the SPICe Form INC-32 to the MCA for incorporation. This submission also includes mandatory forms 49A and 49B. The MCA processes the application for incorporation within 5 to 7 days. It is crucial to file forms 49A and 49B within 2 days of submitting SPICe (INC-32) to avoid invalidation of the application.
This structured approach ensures compliance with legal requirements and facilitates the successful registration of a Private Limited Company under Indian corporate law.
