Register a Company in Maharashtra — Free Incorporation (2026)
Incorporate your Private Limited in Maharashtra with ₹0 of our professional fee — free when you start an annual compliance plan — paying only the government’s own fees at actuals. Maharashtra — India’s largest commercial state and the Mumbai/Pune corporate hub — registers companies through RoC Mumbai. Its incorporation stamp duty is actually mid-range (≈₹1,300 for ₹1 lakh capital), lower than several southern states.
To register a Private Limited company in Maharashtra, you file SPICe+ with RoC Mumbai (and RoC Pune). The MCA filing fee is nil up to ₹15 lakh authorised capital; you pay state stamp duty (₹1,300), each director’s DSC, and ₹1,000 name reservation — all government charges, at actuals. BatchWise waives its professional fee (₹0) when you start an annual compliance plan, so you pay only those government fees.
