About Private Limited Company Registration
A private limited company is an incorporated business owned by shareholders and managed by directors. It is a separate legal person, with its own assets, contracts and obligations. Jurisnest Business Solutions assists with choosing the incorporation particulars, preparing the application and organising the first compliance steps.
What you get
Who this is for
- At least two subscribers and two directors are needed. The same individuals may be both shareholders and directors.
- A private company generally has a maximum of 200 members, subject to the statutory counting rules and exclusions. More than 15 directors requires a special resolution.
- At least one director must stay in India for at least 182 days during the financial year, with proportionate application for a newly incorporated company. Residence and citizenship are different tests.
- Choose a permissible company name, define the business objects and agree the proposed share capital and ownership.
- Provide an Indian registered-office address and the relevant consents. Additional approvals can apply to regulated activities and foreign investment.
Documents required
We send this as a single written checklist so you are not chased for documents one at a time.
After the filing
What stays your responsibility once this is done.
- Review commencement-of-business filing where applicable before starting business or borrowing.
- Arrange the required auditor appointment, statutory registers, share certificates and maintenance of accounts.
- Hold and document the applicable board and member meetings; requirements and exemptions depend on the company category.
- Prepare financial statements and arrange the statutory audit. File the applicable financial statements and annual return with MCA.
- Review income-tax, GST, payroll and activity-specific registrations separately. Incorporation does not replace them.
- Track event-based filings for changes in directors, office, capital, ownership and constitutional documents.
