Private Limited Company Registration
Step 1: Acquiring DSC or Digital Signature Certificate of Each Director of Proposed Company
The first step is to apply for the Digital Signature Certificate or the DSC of Each Director of the
proposed company. This is according to The Information Act of 2000, which demands valid digital
signature on all documents submitted. Affixing a DSC on each document is the safest way one can
authenticate and sign each documents, on behalf of the company.
Step 2: Acquiring the DIN or Director Identification Number
The second step to be followed in the process of company registration in India is to acquire the
Director Identification Number (DIN). Every director of the proposed company needs to have a proper
identification number. Therefore, acquiring the Director Identification Number is mandatory.
DIN is valid for lifetime and once any Director has obtained DIN, He is not required to apply for DIN again even if
becomes director, in any other company.
To get the DIN, you need to fill up the e-form DIN-1 and upload on MCA’s website
Further, in case there are any changes in DIN info of a director, or in case it needs to be updated, for instance like
personal details, change of address, etc., then the director can intimate the changes by submitting the DIN-4 form.
Step 3: Applying for Company Name Registration
Now you have to apply for a company name to register it. This is the third step for completing the
registration process of a company. This not only includes the registration of a company name, it
also incorporates the registration of the company at a genuine address/ notice of physical location
of a company, and also the notice of appointment of company managers, directors, and the company
secretary. Also, the qualification of shares and the pay will be clearly depicted here.
Form 1A: This is the application form which is present for the availability of a new company name or changing the
existing name. While suggesting new names and applying for name approval, we have to follow the naming guidelines
prescribed by the MCA. Normally, similar name to existing company and vague names are not approved. Further, the name
of the proposed company should also provide a glimpse of the type of business which will be undertaken by the proposed
company. Further, in case any name applied by us is rejected by the MCA, then we again have one more chance to provide
fresh names without any additional fees. However, if our second chance is also rejected then a fresh application can be
filed subject to payment of fees again.
Step 4: Applying for Incorporation of company
In a final step, following forms are submitted online to MCA for requesting MCA to issue a final
certificate of registration:
Form SPICe, SPICe MOA, SPICe AOA.
Step 5: Apply for PAN, TAN in Name of New Company
Along with the Incorporation Certificate of a registering Company, MCA now also allots PAN and TAN of the new company.
Step 6: Open Current Account in Bank

Step 7: File Intimation to ROC about Appointment of First Auditors of Company
