Private Limited Company Registration – CapitalBox
A Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) is recognized under the Companies Act, 2013 as a separate legal entity distinct from its shareholders and directors. This structure provides limited liability protection, perpetual succession, and enhanced credibility in the eyes of investors, financial institutions, and government authorities. It is the most widely adopted corporate form for startups and growth‑oriented businesses in India, as it balances flexibility with compliance obligations.
CapitalBox Service and Charges
CapitalBox facilitates the incorporation process by providing professional documentation, compliance guidance, and end‑to‑end support. The service activation fee charged by CapitalBox is ₹ 5,000, exclusive of applicable GST at 18%, and exclusive of Government charges such as MCA filing fees, stamp duty, PAN/TAN issuance, and other statutory levies. In addition, document charges for Digital Signature Certificates (DSC), Director Identification Numbers (DIN), notarization, and other ancillary requirements are payable separately. Advisory services are provided free of cost, but all statutory and facilitation charges are borne by the client.
Eligibility and Legal Requirements
To register a Private Limited Company, a minimum of two directors and two shareholders are required, although the same individuals may act in both capacities. At least one director must be a resident of India, having stayed in the country for not less than 182 days in the preceding financial year. The company name must be unique and compliant with the naming guidelines prescribed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), and it must not infringe upon existing trademarks. A valid registered office address within India is mandatory, and proof of such address must be furnished along with the owner’s No Objection Certificate (NoC).
Documents Required
The incorporation process requires submission of identity and address proofs of all directors and shareholders, including PAN Card and Aadhaar Card, along with passport‑size photographs. Proof of the registered office, such as an electricity bill or property tax receipt, together with the owner’s NoC, must be provided. Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) are mandatory for all directors, and Director Identification Numbers (DIN) must be obtained prior to filing incorporation documents.
Step‑by‑Step Registration Process
The registration begins with name approval through the MCA’s RUN service. Thereafter, DSCs and DINs are generated for the directors. The incorporation application is filed using the SPICe+ form, accompanied by the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA). Upon verification, the MCA issues the Certificate of Incorporation, which legally establishes the company. The process also integrates statutory registrations such as PAN, TAN, GST, EPFO, and ESIC, ensuring that the company is fully compliant from inception.
Advantages of Private Limited Company Structure
The Pvt Ltd form provides limited liability protection, ensuring that the personal assets of shareholders remain insulated from business risks. It establishes a separate legal identity, enabling the company to own property, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in its own name. The structure ensures perpetual succession, meaning that the company continues to exist irrespective of changes in ownership or management. Furthermore, it enhances credibility with investors and banks, thereby facilitating fundraising and expansion.
CapitalBox Commitment
CapitalBox is committed to delivering transparent, professional, and legally compliant facilitation services. By charging a fixed service fee of ₹ 5,000 plus GST, and clearly segregating government and document charges, CapitalBox ensures that clients are fully aware of their financial obligations. The firm provides comprehensive support not only during incorporation but also in post‑registration matters such as GST enrollment, Udyam registration, Startup India recognition, and bank account opening.
