Documents Required for Private Limited Company Registration

8 documents10–15 working days, subject to MCA processing

Private Limited Company Registration is granted on the strength of the papers you file with it, so a complete set at the start is the difference between 10–15 working days, subject to mca processing and a query that sends the application back. Below is every document our team needs from you, what each one is for, and how to get it to us. You upload all of it in your Fastlegal dashboard — nothing is couriered, and nothing is payable while you gather it.

Document questions for private limited company registration

What does SPICe+ include apart from incorporation?

SPICe+ with AGILE-PRO-S applies for the company's PAN and TAN, DIN for directors, EPFO and ESIC registration, a bank account, and optionally GSTIN and professional tax registration in states that are linked.

Can I register a company at my residential address?

Yes. A residential address can be the registered office as long as you have a recent utility bill and, if you are not the owner, an NOC from the owner.
