Introduction

A Private Limited Company is one of the most popular and preferred business structures in India. It allows for limited liability protection, easy transfer of shares, and is suitable for both small and large businesses.

 

At InstabizFilings, we simplify the entire process of Private Limited Company registration for you. Our expert team ensures that your company is incorporated quickly and compliantly.

What is a Private Limited Company?

A Private Limited Company is a business entity that limits the liability of its shareholders to the extent of their shareholding. The company is privately owned and cannot issue shares to the public.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Limited Liability: Shareholders are only responsible for the debts of the company to the extent of their investment.

  • Separate Legal Entity: The company is legally separate from its owners and can own assets, incur debts, and enter into contracts.

  • Ownership Restrictions: A Private Limited Company cannot have more than 200 shareholders.

Eligibility for Private Limited Company Registration

To register a Private Limited Company in India, you must meet the following criteria:

 

  • Minimum of 2 Directors: A Private Limited Company must have at least two directors. At least one of them must be an Indian resident.
  • Minimum of 2 Shareholders: A Private Limited Company requires at least two shareholders, but the maximum limit is 200.
  • Unique Company Name: The name of your company must be unique and not similar to an existing registered name.
  • Registered Office: The company must have a registered office address in India. This could be a commercial or residential property.

Benefits of Private Limited Company Registration

  • Limited Liability: The most significant advantage is that the personal assets of shareholders are protected. The liability of each shareholder is limited to the unpaid amount of shares they hold.
  • Separate Legal Entity: A Private Limited Company is considered a distinct legal person, which means it can enter into contracts, own assets, and be sued separately from its owners.
  • Credibility and Trust: Registering as a Private Limited Company adds credibility to your business. It builds trust with customers, suppliers, and financial institutions.
  • Attract Investment: A Private Limited Company can attract investment from venture capitalists or angel investors more easily than a sole proprietorship or partnership.
  • Tax Benefits: Private Limited Companies enjoy several tax advantages, such as lower corporate tax rates and the ability to deduct business expenses.
  • Easy Transfer of Ownership: Shares in a Private Limited Company can be transferred with ease, allowing business owners to sell or transfer ownership as needed.

Documents Required for Private Limited Company Registration

Before starting the registration process, make sure you have the following documents:

 

  • Identity Proof: PAN Card, Aadhar Card, or Passport of all directors and shareholders.
  • Address Proof: Utility bills or bank statements that show the address of the directors.
