Starting a Business in India – New Simple Step-by-Step Process [2017]
Here is a very simplified new step by step process on how to start a Business in India. This guide will be immensely helpful to those who are finding it difficult to understand the process of starting a business in India
[Editor’s Note: The article is constantly updated to reflect new rules and processes. We first wrote this article in 2009 and have been updating it on a regular basis as and when the processes have changed. In 2015, many new reforms have been announced by the Government, and they have also come up with a unified INC-29 form, that reduces paperwork to a very large extent. We have taken help from folks over at Vakilsearch to bring you the updated procedure. Here is the updated process]
Company registration has forever been a major hassle for entrepreneurs looking to set up their businesses in India. It’s no wonder then that India has been ranked 142nd on the Ease of Doing Business Index and 158th on Ease of Starting a Business. The newly introduced INC-29, a five-in-one form introduced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) in May 2015, will go a long way toward improving this ranking.
The INC-29 doesn’t replace the old procedure (at least not yet), but significantly reduces interaction with the authorities through the clubbing of forms for DIN allotment, name reservation, incorporation, PAN & TAN, as well as ESIC registration. Do note, however, that while INC-29 does begin the PAN & TAN and ESIC registration process, you are still required to submit supporting documents and information on the MCA’s e-biz (ebiz.gov.in) portal (so for now it not clear why PAN, TAN and ESIC details are asked; perhaps the government plans to integrate these later).
The INC-29 form has tremendous ramifications on the registration process. If you have registered a company prior to May 2015, you will immediately recognise how much smoother this process can be. Here are the various steps involved:
Contents
Procedure 1:
- Obtain Digital Signature Certificate from MCA-authorised agency
- Time to Complete: 2 to 5 days
- Cost to Complete: INR 1,500
Any one of the proposed directors must obtain a Class-II Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) from an MCA-authorised agency to use the electronic filing system of the MCA 21. There are six vendors in all, including Tata Consultancy Services, e-Mudhra and n-Code. The rates of each vendor differ vastly, from INR 400 to INR 2650. Charges would include the cost of a physical USB token and the certificate itself.
It would take 2 to 5 days to complete this, mostly depending on how long it takes to courier your documents to the vendor.
The applicant would need to submit the completed Class-II form, self-attested copy of PAN card or, in case of foreign national, copy of Passport, and self-attested copy of Voter ID/Ration Card/Driver’s License/Latest Utilities Bill/AADHAR Card.
Procedure 2:
- Preparing INC-29
- Time to Complete: 1 to 3 days
- Cost to Complete: Company secretary fees
As soon as you get your DSC, you can file INC-29, but don’t assume that you will be ready to do so. The INC-29 is an eight-page form requiring several pieces of information and documents, some of which require a Company Secretary’s signature, to be submitted in one go. Also, in case of errors in your form, resubmission is allowed only once, after which you will have to pay form filing fees again and apply for a refund on the government fees you’ve paid. So please note the documents you need to have in order to prepare the INC-29 and the attachments.
For Director Information Number Application:
Up to three directors can apply for the Director Information Number (DIN) through INC-29; the rest, if any, may do so separately. The DIN is the number through which the MCA identifies directors of companies. Obtaining a DIN involves the submission of the following documents:
- Scanned copy of Passport-sized photograph
- Scanned copy of PAN card (passport if foreign national) and Driver’s License/Voter ID/Latest Utilities Bill. Both should be self-attested, but foreign nationals would need them notarised by the Indian embassy, too (if they belong to countries not in the commonwealth, they would also need to be apostilled).
For Name Approval
While the old process allowed you to submit six options for your company name, in order of preference, the INC-29 only allows you to give one option. Understanding the MCA’s naming guidelines, therefore, is critical to ensuring your form is approved on first attempt. Largely, you need to follow the following rules:
- Ensure that your company’s proposed name has not already been taken on mca.gov.in.
- Ensure that there is no registered trademark in the same name by checking at ipindia.nic.com. If there is one, you can get an NoC from the trademark owner authorising you to use it.
- Ensure that the first half of the name is unique. Avoid geographical references, adjectives, abbreviations and generic terms. Also, the words bank, exchange and stock exchange require approval from RBI and SEBI.
- Ensure that the second half describes the sector you’re in.
Once you’ve decided on a name, also describe the significance of the name in one or two sentences. It would need to be entered into the form.
For Memorandum and Articles of Association
The Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA) need to be attached to the INC-29. These may or may not be drafted by a Company Secretary, but should contain the signature of one. The MoA will also contain the main objects of your business (keep in mind that the Registrar tends to disapprove of businesses that are in unrelated sectors). You would also need to attach an affidavit from all subscribers through Form INC-9 (available on mca.gov.in). The cost of these documents would vary depending on the Company Secretary you choose.
For Registered Office Verification
All companies must have a registered office address. This does not have to be a commercial space. It can even be the home of a director. But the details need to be provided, along with a copy of the Rental Agreement along with an NoC from the owner (if rented property) and sale deed (if property is owned).
For Appointment Letters and Declarations
A number of attachments need to be submitted along with the application. These need to be self-attested, but a Company Secretary must give a separate declaration toward your company verifying the authenticity of all the declarations. The required attachments are:
- Letters of appointment of directors, CEO, managers
- Declaration by the first director in INC-9
- Declararion by appointee director and managing director in Form DIR-2.
Procedure 3
- Filing INC-29
- Time to Complete: 1 day
- The cost to Complete: Rs. 2000 + authorised capital fee + stamp duty
If you have all the papers in order, you can now file the INC-29. Fill in the form and attach all the required documents. Ensure that you haven’t missed anything out or it will come in for resubmission. And if the Registrar finds an error in your form on resubmission, too, the form will be rejected completely.
Once you file the form, you will be directed to pay the fees and stamp duty to a payment gateway. The fees will change according to the authorised capital fee and the stamp duty will vary according to your location. Stamp duty is similar in most states, but costlier in Punjab and Kerala.
Authorised capital fees are as follows:
a. INR 100,000: INR 5,000;
b. For every INR 100,000 of authorised capital up to INR 500,000, INR 4,000;
c. For every INR 100,000 of authorised capital up to INR 50,00,000, INR 3,000;
d. For every INR 100,000 of authorised capital up to INR 100,00,000, INR 1,000;
e. For every INR 100,000 of authorised capital over INR 100,00,000, INR 750.
Let’s take an example. For a company with a registered office in Mumbai and authorised capital of Rs. 300,000, the fees would be as follows:
- Memorandum of Association: Rs. 2000
- Articles of Association: Rs. 300
- Stamp Duty: Rs. 1300
- Authorised Capital Fee: Rs. 13,000
- INC-29: 2000
Procedure 4:
- Issue of Incorporation Certificate
- Time to Complete: 2 days onwards
- Cost to Complete: Does not apply
While the government claims that it will issue the incorporation certificate within two days, this is still to be tested. However, the filing of the single INC-29 form will grant you the incorporation certificate, which is, in itself, a huge step forward.
Once you receive this certificate, you can follow the old steps listed below from Procedure 6 (Make a Seal) onwards. Hopefully, the PAN & TAN and ESIC registrations are also soon combined in the INC-29, as seems to be the plan. This would shorten the procedure some more and move us further up the rankings on the Ease of Doing Business Index.

Procedure 7.
Obtain a Permanent Account Number (PAN) from an authorized franchise or agent appointed by the National Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL) or the Unit Trust of India (UTI) Investors Services Ltd., as outsourced by the Income Tax Department (National)
Time to complete: 7 days
Cost to complete: INR 67 (INR 60 application fee + 12.36% service tax + INR 5 for application form, if not downloaded)

The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) has instructed banks not to accept any form for tax payment (challan) without the PAN or TAN, as applicable. The PAN is a 10-digit alphanumeric number issued on a laminated card by an assessing officer of the Income Tax Department.
In order to improve PAN-related services, the Income Tax department (effective July 2003) outsourced their operations pertaining to allotment of PAN and issuance of PAN cards to UTI Investor Services Ltd, which was authorized to set up and manage IT PAN Service Centers in all cities where there is an Income Tax office. The National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) has also launched PAN operations effective June 2004, setting up TIN Facilitation Centers.
The PAN application is made through the above mentioned service centers using Form 49A, with a certified copy of the certificate of registration, issued by the Registrar of Companies, along with proof of company address and personal identity. A fee of INR 60 (plus applicable taxes) applies for processing the PAN application. IT PAN Service Centers or TIN Facilitation Centers will supply PAN application forms (Form 49A), assist the applicant in filling out the form, collect filled-out forms, and issue an acknowledgement slip. After obtaining PAN from the Income Tax department, UTIISL or NSDL as the case may be, will print the PAN card and deliver it to the applicant.
The application for PAN can also be made online but the documents still need to be physically dropped off for verification with the authorized agent. For more details see(www.incometaxindia.gov.in , www.utiisl.co.in , and www.tin.nsdl.co.in )
Procedure 8.
Obtain a Tax Account Number (TAN) for income taxes deducted at source from the Assessing Office in the Mumbai Income Tax Department
Time to complete: 7 days
Cost to complete: INR 57 (INR 50 application fee + 12.36% service tax)
Comment: The Tax Account Number (TAN) is a 10-digit alphanumeric number required of anyone responsible for deducting or collecting tax. The provisions of Section 203A of the Income Tax Act require that all persons who deduct or collect tax at the source must apply for a TAN. The section also makes it mandatory for the TAN to be quoted in all tax-deducted-at-source (TDS) and tax-collected-at-source (TCS) returns, all TDS/TCS payment challans, and all TDS/TCS certificates issued.
Failure to apply for a TAN or to comply with any of the other provisions of the section is subject to a penalty of INR 10,000/- . The application for allotment of a TAN must be filed using Form 49B and submitted at any TIN Facilitation Center authorized to receive e-TDS returns.
Locations of TIN Facilitation Centres can be found at www.incometaxindia.gov.in and The processing fee for both applications (a new TAN or a change request) is INR 50 (plus applicable taxes). After verification of application, the same is sent to the Income Tax Department and upon satisfaction the department issues the TAN to the applicant.
The national government levies the income tax. Since outsourcing, any authorized franchise or agent appointed by the National Securities Depository Services Limited (NSDL) can accept and process the TAN application. The application for a TAN can be made either online through the NSDL website (www.tin-nsdl.com) or offline.
Upon payment of the fee by credit card, the hard copy of the application must be physically filed with the NSDL.

Procedure 10.
Register for Value-Added Tax (VAT) at the Commercial Tax Office (State)
Time to complete: 12 days

The applicant goes to the Sales-Tax Office and up to the registration counter. The clerk at the counter verifies that the applicant has all the required documents and gives the applicant a token (waiting number). After a short wait, the applicant-“s number is called and the applicant approaches the desk of a sales-tax officer.

Within 10 minutes, the system generates a Tax Identification Number (TIN) Thereafter, the company is considered fully registered to pay taxes. However, the applicant must wait between 10 and 15 days to receive the VAT registration certificate by mail.
In addition to Form 101, other accompanying documentation includes:
1) Certified true copy of the memorandum and articles of association of the company;-

The employer is required to provide necessary information to the concerned regional Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) in the prescribed manner for allotment of Establishment Code Number. No separate registration is required for the employees.
Nevertheless, all eligible employees are required to become members of the Fund and individual account number is allotted by the employer in the prescribed manner. As per an internal circular, the code number is to be allotted within 3 days of submission, if the application is complete in all respects. However, in many cases applicants have received the intimation letter with the code number in 12 to 15 days. An online application facility is not provided so far.
Procedure 13.
Register for medical insurance at the regional office of the Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (National)
Time to complete: 9 days

Procedure: Registration is the process by which every employer/factory and every paid employee is identified for insurance purposes and their individual records are set up for them.
As per the Employees’ State Insurance (General), Form 01 must be submitted by the employer for registration. It takes 3 days to a week for the Employer Code Number to be issued. The-” “intimation letter””- containing the Code Number is mailed to the employer and that takes an additional couple of days.
The Employee-“s individual insurance is a separate process that is initiated upon the employer-“s registration.

The employee temporary cards (ESI Cards) are issued on the spot by the local offices in many places.
The temporary cards are valid for 13 weeks from the date of the employees’ appointment. It takes about 4 to 5 weeks to get a permanent ESI card.

Earlier we use to apply for PAN and wait for PAN for minimum 10 days after getting our company incorporated, but now this an initiative taken by government that every company will file the PAN and TAN application in the same form of incorporation and the most important thing is that the Certificate of Incorporation will consist of PAN. Now it is not possible to incorporate a company without PAN and TAN. The things are not taking time, its getting easier and hassle free to start your business in a company format.
The company are getting incorporate in 2 days. The time consumption is reduced with great speed.

Hi,
Thanks for your valuable article.
I have a question please help me.
I wish to start a webhosting company in India and for UK customers. I have bought some servers and I wish to resell ( shared hosting and reseller hosting ) for UK customers. Is there any legal issue for this business in India or UK ?
There should not be problem. Since the services are to be used exclusively by foreigners, even service tax may not be applicable if you get proper Foreign Inward remittance Certificates from your banks and get the money in USD or other convertible currency.
But cant speak for UK laws. I dont think there should be an issue though since it is legal business proposition.

2. The Type of Trading License [ Options available ] can be obtained from where ?

Dear Abhijit,
1. Registering Company is the first step so that you can get trade license in the name of the Company
2. Completely depends on the type of business activities that you want to get it. Have a look at ebiz portal introduced by Government. That shall give you a fair idea.
3. Depends on HR rules of the Company. also have to check if the business you want to get it in is in competition with your existing Company where you are salaried.

Hi Renk,
I am sharing with you a link for an article specially written for business set up in India for NOn Residents and Foreign nationals.
https://trak.in/tags/business/2011/09/18/starting-business-india-nri-foreign-nationals/
From your post, I assume that you intend to first import from India to Australia as a pilot project and then, if successful ,set up a manufacturing concern. If that is so, for pilot project of importing , you may not need registrations as such. YOu can directly deal with distributors/ manufacturers for some time and if you do find things profitable, then you may go for registration.
I hope you do find the article worth it. It was written some time back and there have been few changes in the regulations since then; most of them are beneficial for businesspersons. If you have any more questions, you may drop an email to [email protected]. I shall be glad to help you.

Yes Amit. You can start with a company which is having one shareholder and minimum one director. It is called One person company [OPC]. It will be recognized as private limited company for all purpose.
You can also expand company’s boundary whenever it is required.
Thanks.

Hi Amit, There is no need for 2 directors now. You can go for a One Person Company (OPC) with just one Director/ shareolder. You can read more about OPC in my article in this magazine itself :

Is it possible for a person without an Indian national, no resident license, be a company in india? Can it be a sole proprietorship? Can you go to a figurehead?…
It is possible to form a Company in India without an Indian national as shareholder. However under the Companies Act, 2013, one Indian resident Director is compulsory. So you can have a Director but not as owner of the Company.
Proprietorship is not allowed for non-Indians.

Hello sir still I am studying in degree course of pharmacy I want to established my own pharmaceutical company with my colleagues can you tell me?
Whats the procedure for it????
Hello Amit,
First you need to decide the constitution of business. There are two options i.e Limited liability partnership & Private limited company. Nowadays & specially after enactment of Companies Act 2013, LLP is more flexible & cost effective tool of business compare to private limited company.

Hey I would like to know from you before May 2015 how many days it took to start a business or to register a startup or company and after May 2015 how many days it takes to start a business or register a startup or a company please mail me i want to have a detailed conversation with you so that i can understand it in detail.
It actually is not uniform but depends from RoC to RoC. For example, RoC Mumbai takes a longer time to incorporate a Company than RoC Pune or RoC Hyderabad. This is purely because there are so many companies being incorporated in Mumbai that work pressure is higher.

Hi Arun,
Could you please advise me how to start small trading business, meaning to say, selling daily household products in India as a foreigner.

Awaiting for your reply.
Very kind regards,

Please note that Foreign Direct investment (FDI) is not allowed for multi brand retail trade in India. Incorporation as well as regular periodical compliance of a corporate entity with Foreigner stake in India may expensive for a foreigner. Also dissolution is difficult in the unfortunate circumstance that a business may not work out. My suggestion is that initially you can look out for a distributor (s) in India for your goods. You may lose out on some profits but you can gain an idea about how a business operates in India and what is the exact potential of your products in India. Once you gain confidence, you can then venture out on your own.

Hi Arun grt article but i had a suggestion wouldn’t it be better if the article had link of best agencies that are doing it cheap ..it would be much helpful …also tx for the info would be lost without it .
I live in chennai and i would like to start a trading company with one of my friend who is a doctor and lives in Iraq. He is an Iraqi national. My friend is already buying many products from India and supplying in Iraq. Now the business is increasing day by day. We would like to start up a small trading office at chennai. We are not sure how we could do this. Me and my friend should be the managing partner and he will be coming to India once in three month to look after the business.
I need help..
Hi Michael,
Since your friend is an Iraqi national, investments done by him shall be considered as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in India. Apart from the process above, you also need to follow RBI process as well. You can go to my article in trak.in magazine itself —– “How Foreign Nationals / NRI’s can setup a Business in India [Overview]”

Hi.. firstly you should select perfect constitution for starting business. There are various constituion such as Limited liability partnership, Private Limited Company, Partnership, Proprietorship etc. Each has it’s own advantage & disadvantage. We are start up advisors from Ahmedabad. Please email for detailed guidance. Email id: [email protected].
Thanks.

Hi Ranjan,
TO open a computer Training institute, you will need a registration with the service tax department if your total turnover crosses Rs. 10 lakhs in a year else otherwise service tax registration is voluntary if the turnover is below Rs. 10 lakhs.
Further, as per local municipal or state law, you may require shop and establishment for the Institute.
If you decide to go for a proprietorship, you do not need any specific registration as cuh. If you decide to go for a pvt ltd company or LLP, you may require one more person as director/ shareholder. You can also go for a One Person Company, a newly introduced concept under Companies Act where you can form a pvt ltd company by only one shareholder/ Director.
I hope the above info is useful. If no just drop a mail at [email protected].

For raising funds which one is a better option – LLP or Pvt Ltd.?
Please elaborate the disadvantages of LLP also?
LLP is better since it is cost effective.
Disadvantage of LLP is Lack of corporate image.People still consider it as Partnership firm only.
Rest Less Compliances and better in many ways.

Can anyone guide me how to start a pharma (bulk drug only) exports agency? The bulk drugs shall be sourced from local manufacturers and exported. The C/F shall be handled by our company only.
Well, this is a pretty exhaustive list, but let me tell you even this is not easy to handle. much more difficult in reality. when registering my company M/s D-Tek trading Pvt Ltd which runs an e-com website http://www.indiacod.com besides two seller accounts on ebay, had to face a lot of heartburn greasing unworthy palms to make people do their job!
Anyways that part being behind me, it is time for the actual grind, doing real business. Offline business is tough!! fixed and sunken costs can kill you. hence went online with my e-com site and has not regretted a moment. there is a little to make even when i m shipping a scratchguard sold for 79 which includes free shipping!! plus the kick and lure of becoming the next flipkart some day ;)

Hello,
Suppose we register a company following above steps and get PAN,TAN, VAT no etc.. but the business doesn’t make any income. Do we still have to pay any tax or annual fees.
I am from Saudi Arabia. Anybody want import dates from Saudi Arabia. Interested person can contact on 00966502740348.
Which product you export?
i doing export business,i want genuine importers in ur country.
please replay
Thanks for this informative article.But i don’t think the process will be completed in the given days.Most of time the officials won’t respond properly for the registration request through online.And the process it pretty slow,even the receiving of the PAN card has been delayed for months.
But what makes me really worrying is i have read a article that starting business in India requires huge investment
http://www.scriptsdump.com/start-small-business-india-home/
can you please provide more information about the business on which we can make investment on coming years.
Thanks in advance.
Well,
As per my opinion, it wont require much days these days.
As far as cost is concerned, it always takes establishment cost at higher scale in any country not only to India.
Cost is and will be always there but simultaneously growth opportunity in India and profits also are far higher.

Therefore, please give suggest some disadvantages of my decision. If i will taking this step then what kind of disadvantages I will face.
Yes sir, your decision has some pros and cons…Converting into private limited company will put you into following added liablities.
1) One time incorporation cost
2)Compulsory audit every year
3) Higher filing responsibilities.

Arun,
Thank you for the very helpful and detailed procedure. I’m sure that, should I form an Indian company, this information will be very helpful. My circumstances are perhaps a bit unusual and I am not certain this is the way to go. Let me explain.
I currently purchase chemicals, both standard products and custom-made, which I then market from the US to customers all over the world. In the current circumstances, I have the goods shipped to me, we warehouse them in the US, and then ship to our customers. Some of our customers take fairly large orders and the shipping costs at both ends are significant. I have been considering creating an Indian business that does the purchase locally, and then ships directly to my customers. This way, the only name on the packages, documents, etc. would be those of my company rather then my suppliers.
The company the I would create would have no staff other than myself and I would only be there occasionally. Does this make sense and is it doable?
Hi Experts…
I’m planning to start a company with these 3 objectives (Probably 3 SBU).
a. Manufacture of Vermi compost from Solid Municipal Waste, Supply and Marketing of Organic Bio fertilizers across India and Globe. (P/L Account)
b. Organic Farm cultivation (Own land and leased ones) (P/L Account)
c. Create awareness towards school kids on Solid waste Management to build Sustainable world (Build next generation of world with Sustainability of Soil, Water, Air, Sun and Sky) (Not P/L Account)
Since I don’t have large capital to pay fees to register the Pvt Ltd company, I’m thinking to register as a Partnership firm till I have good operation stability on my objective.
Can some expert clarify me the following please….
1. Can I have P/L and Non P/L account using partnership firm to maintain different book
2. Is the Name of the firm can be retained till I upgrade the Partnership Firm to Pvt Ltd?
3. Can I able to apply tax exemption for my 3rd SBU (Non P/L account) with Partnership firm registered?
4. How much costs will incur to float Partnership firm and how much cost for Pvt ltd?
5. Which is the best option pick by looking into longer time perspective? I want to move step by step archive bigger goal of my life.
6. Any suggestions expert suggestions to me…
Thanks in advance for suggestions…

Hi Arun,
Wish you Happy & Prosperous New Year. Many thanks for such detailed information.
Its just because of people like you, many people are able to find necessary directions at such ease.
I have couple of question as I wish to start e-commerce business from India with
its own distinct feature. Currently I am just on drawing board and need to do lot of
ground work.
1. If my business involves import or export of goods what additional ground work needs to be completed.
2. For the detailed information you have provided, are there any amendments with respect to current regulations or procedures.
3. How can protect my business model against big players. I may have limited capital
and hence limited budget,resources. Its will be easy for big players to copy my business model with heavy capital where I may not get any chance to compete in
longer run.
Thanks for reading my comment and I look forward to your response.

Thanks of this great resource. I have a question and it would be great if anyone could answer this for me.
I know someone in US who has a home based business selling some personal-use items (home made). If I were to get these items about a dozen a time (through international post) and then sell them in India through a website (as a distributor), would I be required to go through some legal formality to do such a thing? Or can I just do this as an individual without requiring any kind of formal setup? I want to do this on the side and it won’t be my main livelihood.
Thanks in advance for anyone who answers!

@Abhishek, you may contact any CA or CS in India. One of my friends (from US) got her startup registered in India with the help of http://www.abhyankarcs.com
The article is good, but I have some doubts,
To start private company, what is the meaning of 1lakh paid up capital..do we have to deposit 1lakh some where?
And overall how much expenses incur in starting company?
Thanks.
Dear Abhishek,
The Rupees One lakh paid up capital denotes that you have to deposit Rs. 1 lakh as Capital in the company.
After the company is incorporated, you have to open a bank account for the Company and then the shareholders have to deposit the amount for the shares they have to be agrees to take up. The total shall be at least Rs.1 lakh. In return, they get shares for the Company.
Further, please note that this money doesnt go anywhere but remains in the Company’s custody. It is neither locked up but can be used up for the business uses of the Company. However, it cant be used for the personal uses of the owners or shareholders.

Hi all. I started my business of Gadgets but lost some of my docs….
Its really difficult for us to carry our important documents everywhere. Specially when it comes to HR. My HR in the company has lots of works to do apart from managing documents. So I heard about a company providing a fab service. Compnay name is Kleeto. It digitize all the documents and give you 24*7 access to them online. Now thats wonderful. I calculated it as well and found that the cost they are charging is less then what we invest in keeping our very important documents safe. Do check this: https://www.kleeto.in/Inhouse_Vs_kleeto. its a calc provided by company itself… Great from from Kleeto.

Hi
I am planning to start and Ice cream shop in bangalore. I want to know the legal/statutory requirments. I understand that I need to do a VAT registration. I want to go the propritership model. what else do I need.?..do I need Professional tax registration, Registration with Shop and Establishment, Trade licence…and how much would it cost?
Appreciate your help
Thanks
Robin
I think the information, though procedurally correct, has many more things required. For eg., not all are required to have ESIC/PF registrations. Neither, it is advisable to have a VAT TIN at the outset.
It is another matter that you can choose to register voluntarily. However, the registrations can be done at a certain stage even after the business starts. Would request Arun to clarify on those as well.
Good compilations, though! :)

In that much of investment you can think about online business, like b2b or search engine marketing or search engine optimization or some extra. The benefit of this is one you don’t need to invest much and second it have very rich growth too.

Dear Abtin,
1. Investments in India by foreigners are classified as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Permission for FDI depends on the business activity as well as the nationality of the investor. Prima Facie, your activity being web developing, no prior permission may be required. However post investment intimation must go to the Reserve Bank of India.
2. Costs would depend on the amount of Capital that you plan to bring in and the state/city where you want to establish the business.
3. You should employ based on your cost benefit advantages. However certain state do require you to employ local employees if you desire certain benefits.
4. I feel it is yes, but you need to consult a visa/immigration specialist in this regards.
I do hope that the above answers were to your satisfaction.

I want to start up an Employment consultancy in Bangalore. Kindly guide me.
Thank you.
Sadanand
Hi Sadanand,
You have 4 options to start up.
1. As an Individual- least formalites.
2. As a partnership firm- For which you will need to register a partnership deed but the downside of this form is that it has unlimited liability risk.
3. As a Limited Liability Partnership- The liability is limited in this form and the legal compliance is less as compared to a company .
4. As a private limited company- The cost of incorporating is more than the other 3 forms and requires more statutory compliance and compulsory audit.
Since you want to start an employment consultancy and would be dealing with other companies, a private limited company form would be a good choice. You will need a minimum of 2 members for this.
If you need more details and are still looking for help in starting up you can contact me.

Is this steps are enough for that.
It's unfortunate that setting up and running a business in India is so inefficient. In the most recent ‘Ease of Doing Business Report 2010‘ by World Bank, India ranked #135 amongst 183 world economies for ease of doing business. In a survey carried out by the Political and Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) in June 2010, India was found to have the most inefficient bureaucracy in the region. Interestingly not a western country but another Asian country, Singapore, was ranked #1 for easy of doing business in the world as well as for having the most efficient bureaucracy in Asia (see http://tiny.cc/0cnyi). I hope that Indian bureaucratic system evolves for better soon to enable enrepreneurs to realise them dreams without hassles.
what u said is exactly right..
Mayu Rathan Thevar : Our company is planning to launch in Srilanka soon.

There is a difference between managing in Singapore and managing a huge and complex country like India.
However in India too, t has become relatively easier to do business in India because of online procedures.

The article is informative and Arun deserves all praise for it. but there have been a few changes since the article was written. Now DIN is obtained online and does not take more than an hour. Similarly DSC files can be obtained within a few hours. The final incorporation forms are also generally approved within 1-2 days if everything is in order. Also note that now no longer stamping of memorandum and article is required. Stamp duty is payable online along with the submission of forms.

Company Formation is a voluntary association of persons formed for the purpose of doing business having a distinct name and limited liability. It is a juristic person having a separate legal entity distinct from the members who constitute it, capable of rights and duties of its own and endowed with the potential of perpetual succession. The Companies Act, 1956, states that ‘company’ includes company formed and registered under the Act or an existing company i.e. a company formed or registered under any of the previous company laws.However, company is not a citizen so as to claim fundamental rights granted to citizens.

You can start with first understanding the capital requirements for the first few years and making arrangements for the same.Then you can go for the registration process. If you want to go for a proper incorporation process, then dont go for a private limited company. But you can go for a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) Firm which is best situated for a start up and small and medium businesses

I have the same question as Gopal above. Is the procedure for starting an online retail store the same as mentioned above?
Hi,
I am based in Bangalore. I am an upcoming enterpreneur.
I am in the process of launching my E-commerce website shortly.
I have done the necessary domain registration as well.
However I would like to register it (in government records)as a business so as to adhere to all the rules concerning E-commerce sites as per Indian rules so that the financial transactions on the site are as finance rules..
Does your firm provide service in this regard.
Since this is a startup, I would be running it myself in the beginning. Hence I call it a business and not a company.
So do give me details.
Gopal
Bangalore 35
Hi Gopal,
I am also interested in starting up an e-commerce site. Would be glad to share any information i have. Did you get any details btw?
regards,
Sandeep
Hi Sandeep.
I was unable to get any information on the net about the E-commerce Registration.
Every website details different regisration rules for the same type of startups.
The closest I come to is getting Certificate of Incorporation from the Registrar of Companies. But I believe it is a costly affair and certainly not inteneded for startups with bare minimum funds.
Perhaps someone can guide further.
However as I have done website domain registration for my website and know a little about web design I can be of help to you if required.
Gopal.

Dear Iftekhar
Salaam
I have read your text and have good intentions to help/set up a business as per your objective. Yes! You can start a decent small interesting business in Mumbai or even Pune. The business with a capital of 2 lakhs could be surely possible a perfume business which will generate good capital revenue in short time.
I have a 18 years perfume background from middle east and have a very good concept in hand to explore only with good people who are agressive in business and looking for a bright future and grow with the growing business.
You can look at returns of 2 lakhs to 3lakhs in 3months time by all means.
If you are interested in a small business in perfumery glamerous industry, Please get in touch with me. (2) the other option is to ba a franchise of my fast food joint name as ‘Hotspot’ we are making and selling Pizza, Veg and Non veg Burgers, Hotdogs, french fries and fried chicken

Hi Arun, I must say you did excellent job. We are about to start a venture soon and I don’t follow all law jargons sited on either Government help pages or some private websites. You made this cumbersome procedure “Easy to follow” and put it down for everyone to understand how simple it is. Step by step instructions with “How to perform/execute” respective mandatory actions are in simple language but complete with all respect. Thanks so much. Keep writing. :-) Harshul

Hi,
I am a major partner in a recently started Indian company. I live in USA and a US citizen.
Can anyone help me on the procedures that I should follow to comply with US regulations? I mean, what should I do to file or intimate about my investments and tranctions with my Indian entity to US government?
More than the netas, it is the bureaucracy that is to be blamed.there is little to nil corruption in ministry of corporate affairs for things like company formation.

Thanks alot for all this information. It will prove to be very helpful for people like us who want to start a business. I totally agree that in India, we can not get anything done without adding on the under the table cost.
Hi Shantanu,
I am also in plans of registering my company.
Might need your support for this.
Please revert to my mail id [email protected] for more details.
Thanks,
