FAQs

How much does it cost to register a company in India?

For a 2-director Pvt Ltd with authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh, ₹7,000–₹25,000 all-in at typical providers — most of it the professional fee. Government fees are small and at actuals. With a BatchWise annual plan the professional fee is ₹0, so you pay only government fees.

Why does stamp duty vary by state?

Stamp duty on MoA/AoA is a state subject; each state sets and amends its own rate. We use wide budgeting bands; the exact figure comes from the MCA Fee Enquiry Portal at filing time.

Is the government registration fee really zero?

The MCA SPICe+ filing fee is nil up to ₹15 lakh authorised capital. You still pay name reservation, stamp duty, DSC and PAN+TAN. Above ₹15 lakh, fees and stamp duty rise.

Start a BatchWise annual plan and your company registration is free — you pay only the government fees above. See also the state-wise stamp duty guide.
