Planning to start a business? A Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) is one of the smartest choices. I’m a tax consultant with Taxlegit, and I’ve helped hundreds of businesses register the right way.

Let me walk you through the process in simple steps.


Why Choose a Pvt Limited Company?

A pvt limited company registration gives your business a legal identity. Your personal assets stay safe. You get better credibility with clients and investors. It's ideal if you want to grow and scale.

Key benefits:

  • Limited liability

  • Easy to raise funds

  • Better brand value

  • Separate legal entity

  • Trusted structure for startups


Who Can Register?

You need:

  • Minimum 2 directors

  • Minimum 2 shareholders

  • One must be a resident of India

  • No criminal background

Foreign nationals can also be shareholders. You don’t need to visit any office. At Taxlegit, I manage everything online.


Documents Required

Keep these documents ready:

  • PAN card (all directors and shareholders)

  • Aadhaar card

  • Address proof (bank statement or utility bill)

  • Passport-size photo

  • Business address proof (rental agreement or utility)

Make sure all documents are clear and updated. One wrong detail can delay the process.


Steps for Pvt Limited Company Registration


1. Apply for Digital Signature (DSC)

Each director needs a DSC. It’s used to sign electronic documents. This is the first step.


2. Apply for Director Identification Number (DIN)

DIN is a unique number for each director. I’ll help you get it through the SPICe+ form.


3. Name Approval

Choose a unique name for your company. It should not match existing names or trademarks. You can check trademark online to avoid name conflicts.

Always keep two name options ready. If one gets rejected, we move to the next.


4. Drafting of MOA & AOA

MOA (Memorandum of Association) and AOA (Articles of Association) define your business scope and rules.

I help you create these in a professional format. They are submitted with the registration form.


5. Submit SPICe+ Form

This is the main form for company registration. It includes:

  • PAN & TAN application

  • GST registration (optional)

  • EPFO & ESIC registration

  • Bank account opening request

You don't have to fill separate forms. One single form does it all.


6. Certificate of Incorporation

Once approved, you receive the Certificate of Incorporation. Your company is now officially registered.

You also get your company PAN, TAN, and CIN.


Pvt Ltd vs Single Person Company Registration

If you’re a solo entrepreneur, you can also consider Single Person Company registration.

What is a Single Person Company (OPC)?

A Single Person Company is a type of private limited company with just one director and one shareholder. It gives your business a legal identity and limits your personal liability.

You get full control over your business, but also enjoy the protection of a corporate structure.


Key Benefits of OPC Registration

  • Limited liability – your personal assets stay safe

  • Full control – no interference from partners

  • Separate legal entity – the business runs under a corporate identity

  • Better credibility – more trust from banks and clients

  • Easy to convert – you can later convert to a private limited company


Basic Requirements

To register an OPC, you need:

  • One director (must be an Indian citizen and resident)

  • One nominee (who takes over in case of death/incapacity)

  • Registered office address in India

  • PAN, Aadhaar, and address proof

Foreign nationals cannot register an OPC directly.


Documents You’ll Need

  • PAN and Aadhaar of the director

  • Identity and address proof of the nominee

  • Passport-size photos

  • Proof of business address (utility bill, rent agreement)

Make sure all documents are clear and updated.


Registration Process

Here’s how I help clients register their OPC with Taxlegit:

  1. Get DSC (Digital Signature Certificate)

  2. Apply for DIN (Director Identification Number)

  3. Choose a company name and check availability

  4. Draft MOA and AOA (company rules and objectives)

  5. File SPICe+ form with MCA

  6. Receive Certificate of Incorporation

You also get your PAN, TAN, and Company Identification Number (CIN) once the registration is complete.
