Quick Answer

What is SPICe+ and how is it different from the earlier SPICe form in Broadway, Chennai?

SPICe+ is the integrated web form notified by MCA effective 23-Feb-2020 replacing the earlier SPICe (INC-32) PDF utility. It has two parts — Part A for name reservation and Part B for incorporation, DIN allotment, mandatory PAN/TAN, EPFO, ESIC, Profession Tax (in Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal) and bank account opening. The linked AGILE-PRO-S (INC-35) carries the GSTIN, EPFO, ESIC, Profession Tax and bank account fields.

Why FilingPro?

Why Broadway Clients Choose FilingPro

Expert Pvt Ltd in Broadway — qualified professionals, 15+ years experience, zero-penalty track record.

Section 12 Office Verification Readiness

Where the Registrar exercises Section 12(9) physical verification powers, the registered office must be capable of receiving and acknowledging communications. The address proof, signage, and a responsible person being present are coordinated, so verification passes without triggering Section 248(1)(d) strike-off.

MOA Object Tested Against Regulated Sectors

Object clauses are screened against the registration regimes administered by the Reserve Bank, the insurance regulator, the securities regulator, and the Nidhi rules under Section 406. Founders avoid the awkward scenario of an inadvertent NBFC characterisation or a Nidhi misclassification.

Section 5(3) Entrenchment Where Required

Where higher-than-special-resolution procedure is commercially required for share transfer restrictions, board nominations or capital alterations, entrenchment provisions are drafted into INC-34 with explicit triggers and recorded against the relevant article.

Class 3 DSC Procurement Same Day

Class 3 Digital Signature Certificates for subscribers and first directors are procured through our partner certifying authorities using the Aadhaar OTP route, typically delivering the token by end of day. PAN and Aadhaar are linked and matched before the certificate issue request is raised.

Section 90 Significant Beneficial Owner Mapping

Beneficial ownership is traced through layered structures to the natural person crossing the ten per cent threshold. The BEN-1 declaration is captured on share allotment and the BEN-2 filing is calendared at twenty-five days, leaving five days of buffer before the statutory deadline.

Section 184 Director Disclosure Initiated

The first board meeting agenda includes a structured disclosure of interest exercise. Each director's other directorships, partnerships, shareholdings above two per cent and family connections are captured in MBP-1 and entered in the register of contracts maintained under Section 189.

Key Benefits

What Broadway Clients Get

Every Pvt Ltd Company Registration engagement delivers measurable, guaranteed outcomes — expert professionals, on time, every time.

MSME Recognition Locked At Inception
Udyam registration under the MSMED Act 2006 unlocks the Section 43B(h) protection for trade creditors, MSME Samadhaan recourse on delayed payments and priority sector lending. We file the Udyam application using the freshly allotted PAN and GSTIN, so the company is recognised as MSME from its first invoice rather than years later.
Certificate of Incorporation in 7-10 Working Days
With clean documentation and successful Aadhaar e-KYC of Broadway promoters, the Certificate of Incorporation under Section 7(2) bearing the CIN is typically delivered within 7-10 working days from start of SPICe+ Part A.
DIN PAN TAN in One Filing
DIN under Section 153, PAN under Section 139A of the Income Tax Act and TAN under Section 203A are allotted concurrently with CIN through the integrated SPICe+ + AGILE-PRO-S filing — no separate DIR-3, Form 49A or Form 49B.
EPFO ESIC Optional GST and Bank Account
EPFO and ESIC numbers are mandatorily allotted through AGILE-PRO-S irrespective of employee count. GSTIN is allotted on opt-in. Bank account opening in an empanelled bank is initiated for Broadway clients during the same window.
Section 4(1) Compliant MOA
Object clauses framed in plain language confined to the intended business. NBFC, Nidhi, Insurance, Banking, Stock Broking and Microfinance overlaps are surgically excluded — no sectoral regulator NOC inadvertently required for Broadway clients.
Section 5(3) Entrenchment Where Needed
Articles of Association drafted with entrenchment provisions where Broadway promoters require higher-than-special-resolution procedure for share transfer restrictions, director nominations or capital alterations — investor-ready structure from day one.

Pvt Ltd Company Registration in Broadway, Chennai 600001

Every Broadway engagement we open begins with the basics: PIN 600001, the Broadway Division, and the coordinates 13.0918, 80.2867 that anchor the locality. Broadway (PIN 600001) falls under the Broadway Division of the Chennai North, the jurisdiction that handles statutory matters for businesses at this PIN. Broadway is the central transport interchange for north Chennai with wholesale shops freight forwarders and budget hotels surrounding the bus terminus. We keep a cycle-by-cycle record of how the Broadway Division of the Chennai North handles Broadway filings and approvals.

Document pickup near Madras High Court is a same-hour errand for our Broadway engagements rather than the half-day a typical Chennai client expects. Working in Broadway brings a logistical edge: proximity to Madras High Court and the Broadway Bus Terminus corridor keeps physical document handling fast. Broadway reads as a central transport and wholesale hub pocket with high commercial activity, anchored around Madras High Court and fed by the Broadway Bus Terminus corridor. The central transport and wholesale hub mix of Broadway shapes what lands in our workpapers — a blend of transport activity and the commercial pulse around Madras High Court.

We have closed enough Pvt Ltd Company Registration files for hospitality firms near Broadway to know where the department usually probes. Sector concentration matters: when Broadway leans toward hospitality, the Pvt Ltd risks cluster around the same few line items each cycle. A hospitality operator in Broadway gets a Pvt Ltd workflow shaped by sector norms, not a one-size-fits-all template. The hospitality firms we serve in Broadway value a Pvt Ltd partner who already understands their sector's compliance rhythm.

Our Broadway Pvt Ltd process is built to be predictable, documented, and on time, cycle after cycle. Turnaround for Broadway Pvt Ltd Company Registration is deterministic — fixed fee, a scoped timeline, and a same-business-day acknowledgement once filed. The Broadway Pvt Ltd Company Registration workflow is documented end-to-end: WhatsApp document intake, a working file, qualified review, and a filed acknowledgement back to you. The qualified-review step on every Broadway Pvt Ltd file is where errors get caught before they reach the portal.

Coverage from Broadway naturally extends to Sowcarpet, so group entities across the area share one Pvt Ltd Company Registration workflow. Businesses straddling Broadway and Sowcarpet get a single Pvt Ltd point of contact rather than two. Serving Broadway and Sowcarpet from one team keeps Pvt Ltd Company Registration turnaround identical across the cluster. Group companies spread across Broadway and Sowcarpet consolidate their Pvt Ltd under one engagement with us.

Over several cycles in Broadway, the recurring Pvt Ltd Company Registration issues cluster around a predictable short list we screen for early. Common patterns in the Broadway Division give Broadway businesses an early-warning map we use to pre-empt Pvt Ltd issues. Sector signals in Broadway — seasonal transport swings and peak-period volumes — shape how we schedule Pvt Ltd work. Because we work repeatedly across Broadway, we can benchmark a new client's Pvt Ltd Company Registration position against the locality norm.

We onboard new Broadway entities onto a Pvt Ltd Company Registration cadence that is audit-ready from the very first cycle. Shifting principal place of business to Broadway means updating jurisdiction to the Chennai North, and we manage the paperwork end-to-end. Incorporating in Broadway comes with jurisdiction, registration and Pvt Ltd steps that we sequence so nothing stalls the launch. First-time Pvt Ltd Company Registration for a Broadway business is where getting the basics right saves years of cleanup later.

Pvt Ltd Company Registration in Broadway — Complete Guide

Our MOA object clauses describe what the company actually intends to do in language a banker, customer or revenue officer can understand. Generic legacy phrasing inherited from the Companies Act 1956 is removed where it adds no value. The ancillary objects clause is curated rather than expanded indiscriminately. The result is a constitutional document that supports the business rather than obscures it.

People Also Ask — Pvt Ltd in Broadway
How long does private limited registration take through SPICe+ in Broadway?
With clean documentation and successful Aadhaar e-KYC, the typical timeline from name reservation in SPICe+ Part A to issue of the Certificate of Incorporation under Section 7(2) is 7 to 10 working days. Name reservation itself is 1 to 3 working days. Part B incorporation post-reservation takes 4 to 7 working days subject to MCA processing load and registered office verification under Section 12(9).
Is there any minimum paid-up capital for incorporating a private limited?
No. The Companies (Amendment) Act 2015 effective 29-May-2015 omitted the earlier ₹1,00,000 minimum paid-up capital requirement. A private company may today be incorporated with any paid-up capital agreed among the subscribers. Stamp duty is computed on authorised capital declared in the MOA — Tamil Nadu levies 0.15% of authorised capital subject to floor of ₹200 and ceiling of ₹50,000.
Can a single registered address be used for multiple companies in Broadway?
Yes. There is no statutory bar in Section 12 against multiple companies sharing the same registered office address, provided each company is independently capable of receiving and acknowledging communications. A common scenario is group companies with shared corporate office. The owner's NOC, utility bill and property tax receipt are submitted afresh with each SPICe+ application.
Is INC-20A mandatory and what is the penalty for default?
Section 10A read with Rule 23A requires every company having share capital incorporated on or after 2-Nov-2018 to file INC-20A within 180 days declaring receipt of subscription money and verified registered office. Default attracts penalty of ₹50,000 on the company and ₹1,000 per day per officer up to ₹1,00,000. The Registrar may also initiate Section 248(1)(d) strike-off of companies that have not filed INC-20A.
Can a foreign national be a first director of an Indian private limited?
Yes. Section 149 places no nationality bar on directorship subject to the Section 149(3) resident director requirement — at least one director must have stayed in India for 182 days in the financial year. The foreign national obtains DIN through SPICe+ supported by passport apostilled under the Hague Apostille Convention 1961 (or consularised in non-signatory countries) and address proof attested by Notary Public of the home country.
What is the difference between authorised capital and paid-up capital?
Authorised capital is the maximum nominal value of shares the company is empowered by its MOA Capital Clause to issue. Paid-up capital is the value of shares actually subscribed and paid for by shareholders. A company may be incorporated with ₹10 lakh authorised capital but issue and call up only ₹1 lakh paid-up. Stamp duty is paid on authorised capital. Issue beyond authorised capital requires MGT-14 special resolution and SH-7 filing under Section 61.
What name can I choose for a private limited?

Name must be distinctive, not identical or undesirably similar to existing entities, not violate Emblems and Names Act 1950, and end with 'Private Limited'. Rule 8 and Rule 8A of the Incorporation Rules govern name selection and resemblance tests.

How is private limited taxation different from a proprietorship?

Private limited is taxed at 22 per cent under Section 115BAA or 15 per cent under Section 115BAB for new manufacturers; MAT under Section 115JB applies. Proprietorship is taxed at individual slab rates without separate corporate-distribution layer.

Can a private limited be incorporated with a foreign shareholder?

Yes, a private limited can be incorporated with foreign subscribers subject to FEMA NDI Rules 2019 sectoral cap and route. Foreign-subscriber documents must be apostilled or consularised depending on Hague Convention status; FC-GPR is filed within 30 days of allotment.

What is e-MoA and e-AoA?

e-MoA in Form INC-33 and e-AoA in Form INC-34 are electronic versions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association filed integrally with SPICe+ Part B. They follow Table A to F of Schedule I to the Companies Act 2013.

Do I need GST registration after incorporation?

GST registration is required if aggregate turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh (goods) or ₹20 lakh (services) under Section 22, or compulsorily under Section 24 for inter-State suppliers, e-commerce sellers and reverse-charge liable persons regardless of turnover.

What annual filings are required for a private limited?

Mandatory annual filings include AOC-4 within thirty days of AGM, MGT-7 within sixty days of AGM, DPT-3 by 30 June, MSME-1 half-yearly, DIR-3 KYC by 30 September, and income-tax return ITR-6 by the Section 139 due date.

What Broadway clients want to know before signing: Closer to Broadway, around the Broadway Bus Terminus catchment of Broadway, which is why where wholesale trade businesses dominate the local compliance profile.

What Private Limited incorporation means under Indian company law

Limited liability and separate legal personality

The foundational doctrine of Private Limited incorporation is separate legal personality, articulated by the House of Lords in Salomon v A Salomon and Co Ltd [1897] and adopted by Indian jurisprudence in Tata Engineering and Locomotive Co Ltd v State of Bihar [1965 SCR 391]. The company is a distinct legal person from its members and directors, capable of holding property, suing and being sued in its own name. Liability of members under Section 2(22) is limited to the amount unpaid on the shares held. The corporate veil can be lifted only in narrow circumstances — fraud, sham, evasion of statutory obligation — as elaborated in Vodafone International Holdings BV v Union of India [2012 6 SCC 613]. The limited-liability shield is the principal commercial advantage of Private Limited over proprietorship and partnership, and is the reason promoters of consequence almost invariably elect the Private Limited form for ventures with external counterparties.

Constitutional documents — MOA and AOA

The Memorandum of Association under Section 4 is the foundational charter that defines the company's name, registered office State, objects, liability and capital. The MOA must be in one of the Tables A to E of Schedule I, depending on whether the company is limited by shares, limited by guarantee or unlimited. The Articles of Association under Section 5 contain the regulations for management of the company, covering board composition, meetings, share transfer, dividend declaration, and members' rights. Section 6 establishes the supremacy of the Act over any conflicting MOA / AOA provision. Section 13 governs alteration of MOA (special resolution plus Central Government approval for object-clause changes affecting registered office State), Section 14 governs alteration of AOA (special resolution plus filing of MGT-14 within thirty days). The MOA and AOA filed with SPICe+ Part B become the binding constitutional documents on incorporation.

Statutory framework under Section 7

Private Limited incorporation in India is governed by Section 7 of the Companies Act 2013 read with the Companies (Incorporation) Rules 2014. Section 7(1) requires the subscribers to the memorandum to file an application with the Registrar within whose jurisdiction the registered office of the company is to be situated, accompanied by the MOA and AOA duly signed by the subscribers, a declaration by a professional that the requirements of the Act and Rules have been complied with, a declaration from each subscriber and first director in Form INC-9, the address for correspondence till the registered office is established, the particulars of subscribers and first directors with proof of identity, and the particulars of first directors with their DIN and consent in Form DIR-2. Section 7(2) provides that the Registrar shall on the basis of the documents filed register the memorandum and articles and issue a Certificate of Incorporation in Form INC-11 with a Corporate Identity Number. The CIN under Section 7(3) is the company's unique identifier for all subsequent statutory filings.

Post-incorporation compliance — PAN TAN GST

GSTIN allotment timeline and obligations

Where GSTIN is opted-in through AGILE-PRO-S, the GSTIN is allotted by GSTN within three to fifteen working days. From the date of GSTIN allotment, the company is liable to file monthly returns — GSTR-1 by the eleventh of the following month (or quarterly under QRMP scheme if turnover under ₹5 crore), GSTR-3B by the twentieth of the following month, and the annual return GSTR-9 by 31 December of the following financial year (where turnover exceeds ₹2 crore, with reconciliation statement GSTR-9C signed by a CA / CMA where turnover exceeds ₹5 crore). The first invoice must be issued only after the GSTIN is allotted; pre-GSTIN invoices cannot bear a GSTIN and ITC pass-through is broken. Companies opting out of GSTIN at AGILE stage can apply separately when needed.

Section 10A commencement declaration

Section 10A inserted by the Companies (Amendment) Act 2019 requires every company incorporated after 2 November 2018 having a share capital to file a declaration of commencement of business in Form INC-20A within 180 days of incorporation. The declaration is filed by a director and certified by a practising professional confirming that every subscriber to the memorandum has paid the value of shares agreed to be taken by him on the date of making of such declaration, and that the company has filed with the Registrar verification of its registered office in INC-22. Non-filing attracts a penalty of ₹50,000 on the company and ₹1,000 per day on every officer in default up to ₹1 lakh. The Registrar can also strike off the company under Section 248(1)(b) for non-filing.

EPFO ESIC PT and Shop & Establishment

Beyond PAN, TAN and GSTIN, post-incorporation compliances include EPFO Establishment Code activation (mandatory from twenty employees under EPF & MP Act 1952), ESIC Code activation (mandatory from ten employees in covered areas under ESI Act 1948), Profession Tax registration in States other than those integrated in AGILE-PRO-S, Shop and Establishment registration under the State Shops and Establishments Act (Tamil Nadu Shops and Establishments Act 1947, with online registration through the Labour Department portal), Labour Welfare Fund contribution registration (annual in Tamil Nadu), MSME registration through Udyam portal (optional but commonly opted for benefits under MSMED Act 2006), and sectoral licences as applicable (FSSAI, Drug Licence, IEC, BIS, etc.). The order of obtaining these depends on the business activity and the time horizon to commencement.

Annual return AOC-4 and MGT-7

AOC-4 financial statement filing

Section 137(1) read with Rule 12 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules 2014 requires every company to file a copy of the financial statements (including consolidated financial statements where applicable), along with the documents required to be annexed (auditor's report, board's report under Section 134, statement of subsidiaries / associates / joint ventures in AOC-1), in Form AOC-4 within thirty days of the date of the annual general meeting. Companies using XBRL taxonomy file Form AOC-4 XBRL (mandatory for listed companies, public companies with paid-up capital ≥ ₹5 crore or turnover ≥ ₹100 crore, and Ind-AS adopters). The financial statements must be signed by the Chairperson or two directors (one of whom is the Managing Director) and by the Company Secretary and CFO where appointed. Late filing attracts additional fees scaling with delay.

MGT-7 / MGT-7A annual return

Section 92(1) read with Rule 11 of the Companies (Management and Administration) Rules 2014 requires every company to prepare a return called the annual return in Form MGT-7 (MGT-7A for OPCs and small companies under the 2021 amendment) containing the particulars as on the close of the financial year — registered office, principal business activities, particulars of holding / subsidiary / associate companies, shares / debentures / other securities and shareholding pattern, indebtedness, members and debenture holders, promoters / directors / KMP and changes therein, meetings of members / board / committees and attendance, remuneration of directors and KMP, penalty / punishment / compounding of offences, certification of compliances, and shareholding pattern. The return must be filed within sixty days of the AGM. Certification by a Company Secretary is required for listed companies and companies with paid-up capital ≥ ₹10 crore or turnover ≥ ₹50 crore.

Board's report under Section 134

Section 134(3) prescribes the contents of the Board's Report to be attached to the financial statements — extract of annual return (now replaced by web-link to MGT-7 under the 2017 amendment), number of board meetings, directors' responsibility statement, frauds reported by auditors, policy on directors' appointment and remuneration, declarations from independent directors (where applicable), explanations to qualifications in the audit report, particulars of loans / guarantees / investments under Section 186, particulars of related-party transactions in AOC-2 under Section 188, state of company's affairs, transfers to reserves and dividend declared, material changes between balance-sheet date and signing date, conservation of energy / technology absorption / foreign exchange particulars under Section 134(3)(m), risk management policy, CSR particulars (where Section 135 applies), and the like. The Board's Report is signed by the Chairperson or by two directors.

Audit under Section 139

Auditor's report and CARO 2020

Section 143(3) prescribes the contents of the auditor's report — opinion on the financial statements, whether the financial statements give a true and fair view, observations on internal financial controls under Section 143(3)(i) (for prescribed companies), and matters to be reported under Section 143(11) which are set out in the Companies (Auditor's Report) Order 2020 (CARO 2020). CARO 2020 applies to all companies except those expressly exempt — banking companies, insurance companies, Section 8 companies, OPCs, small companies, and Private Limiteds with paid-up capital + reserves ≤ ₹1 crore and borrowings ≤ ₹1 crore and revenue ≤ ₹10 crore. CARO 2020 has 21 reporting clauses covering fixed assets, inventory, loans, statutory dues, IFC, related-party transactions, and many more, significantly expanding the auditor's reporting burden.

First-auditor appointment

Section 139(6) requires the Board of Directors to appoint the first auditor of the company within thirty days from the date of registration. The first auditor holds office until the conclusion of the first annual general meeting. The appointment is by board resolution at the first board meeting under Section 173; no shareholder approval is required for the first-auditor appointment. The appointee must be a Chartered Accountant in practice or a firm of Chartered Accountants registered with the ICAI, must not be disqualified under Section 141, must furnish a consent in writing and a certificate that the appointment if made will be in accordance with the conditions of Section 141. ADT-1 is filed by the company with the ROC within fifteen days of the appointment under Rule 4 of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules 2014.

Subsequent appointment and rotation

Section 139(1) requires the company at the first AGM to appoint an individual or a firm as an auditor to hold office from the conclusion of that AGM till the conclusion of the sixth AGM, with shareholder ratification at every subsequent AGM (the ratification requirement was removed by the Companies (Amendment) Act 2017 — appointment is now for the entire five-year term without annual ratification). Section 139(2) read with Rule 5 prescribes auditor rotation for listed companies and prescribed unlisted companies — individual auditors can serve a maximum of one term of five consecutive years, audit firms a maximum of two terms of five consecutive years each, followed by a cooling-off of five years. Private Limiteds with paid-up capital below ₹20 crore and borrowings below ₹50 crore are exempt from the rotation requirement.

What Broadway clients usually ask next: Closer to Broadway, where wholesale trade businesses dominate the local compliance profile, which is why for Broadway businesses balancing growth ambitions with tight statutory compliance.

Glossary

Plain-English glossary for this service

Terms you will hear in this area — In Broadway, where wholesale trade businesses dominate the local compliance profile.

DIN

DIN means Director Identification Number — a unique eight-digit number allotted to every individual who intends to become a director of an Indian company. Under SPICe+ a fresh DIN is allotted directly through the incorporation form for up to three first-time directors, eliminating the older DIR-3 filing.

MOA

MOA stands for Memorandum of Association — the charter document that defines the company's name, registered office state, object clauses, liability clause, capital clause and subscriber clause. It binds the company to act only within the powers given in the object clause; transactions outside attract the ultra-vires doctrine.

AOA

AOA stands for Articles of Association — the internal rule book of the company covering share-capital management, board procedure, transfer of shares, dividend, accounts and winding-up. Private companies usually adopt Table F of Schedule I of the Companies Act 2013 with modifications, filed electronically as INC-34.

INC-22

INC-22 is the e-form intimating the registered office address to the Registrar of Companies. It must be filed within thirty days of incorporation if the office was not declared in SPICe+ itself, accompanied by utility bill, NOC from the owner, and rent agreement on the appropriate stamp paper.

INC-20A

INC-20A is the declaration of commencement of business filed under Section 10A within 180 days of incorporation. It is supported by a bank statement showing receipt of subscription money from every shareholder and certified by a practising professional. Without INC-20A the company cannot borrow, transact or exercise borrowing powers.

AGILE-PRO-S

AGILE-PRO-S is the linked attachment to SPICe+ that triggers automatic allotment of GSTIN, EPFO registration, ESIC registration, professional tax registration in select states and a current bank account. It is optional for some heads but mandatory for EPFO and ESIC where applicability is declared.

RUN

RUN stands for Reserve Unique Name — a standalone web service on the MCA portal for reserving or changing a company name independent of incorporation. Since SPICe+ Part A bundled name reservation, RUN is now mostly used for change-of-name applications post-incorporation, with one resubmission allowed within fifteen days.

Subscriber sheet

Subscriber sheet refers to the last page of the MOA and AOA where the initial shareholders sign opposite their proposed shareholding. In the electronic MOA-AOA route under INC-33 and INC-34, the subscriber sheet is replaced by Class-3 DSC signatures of the subscribers, witnessed digitally by a practising professional.

INC-9

INC-9 is the auto-generated declaration by the first subscribers and directors confirming they are not convicted of any offence, have not been declared insolvent and have not been guilty of misfeasance in the preceding five years. It is system-generated in SPICe+ and signed with each declarant's Class-3 DSC.

Authorised capital

Authorised capital is the maximum share capital the company is permitted to issue, declared in the capital clause of MOA. Stamp duty and ROC fee under SPICe+ are computed on this number. Increasing it later requires a special resolution and SH-7 filing with fresh stamp duty, so founders usually set it modestly higher than immediate need.

Paid-up capital

Paid-up capital is the portion of subscribed capital actually paid into the company by shareholders. It is reflected in the first bank statement after incorporation and forms the evidentiary base for INC-20A. The Companies Amendment Act 2015 removed the minimum paid-up capital requirement, allowing incorporation with ₹1.

Table F

Table F is the model set of Articles of Association set out in Schedule I of the Companies Act 2013 for a company limited by shares. Most private companies adopt Table F with limited modifications such as entrenchment clauses under Section 5(3) and pre-emption rights, instead of drafting from scratch.

By Industry

Industry-specific patterns in Broadway

How the local trade mix shapes this — In Broadway, where wholesale trade businesses dominate the local compliance profile; the cluster of wholesale trade, transport, hospitality businesses that defines Broadway's commercial fabric.

Retail
Common issue: Family-run retail businesses converting from proprietorship to Private Limited often retain the same trading style without checking Section 4(2) name-availability. The proposed name is rejected by the Central Registration Centre because it is identical or too closely resembles an existing company name on the MCA master-data, costing two weeks and a fresh ₹1,000 RUN fee.
How we handle it: Run an MCA-21 name-search and a Trade Marks Registry public-search on the proposed name before filing SPICe+ Part A. Apply with two alternatives ranked by preference. Where the proprietorship trade name is well-established locally, append a distinguishing element such as 'Retail' or 'Mart' to satisfy Section 4(2) and Rule 8.
Hospitality
Common issue: Hotel and restaurant Private Limiteds operating from leased premises frequently produce a lease deed in the promoter's individual name as registered-office proof. The Registrar rejects the SPICe+ filing because Section 12(1) requires the registered office to be in the name of the company or to have a clear NOC from the lessee.
How we handle it: Either execute a fresh lease deed in the company's name after incorporation and file INC-22 within thirty days, or annex a notarised NOC from the individual lessee permitting the company to use the premises as registered office, along with the underlying lease deed and latest utility bill.
Hospitality
Common issue: Restaurant Private Limiteds operating across multiple locations frequently incorporate under one Private Limited and open additional places of business without filing INC-22 within thirty days of each new outlet opening. The default attracts Section 12(8) penalty of ₹1,000 per day per outlet up to ₹1 lakh.
How we handle it: Treat every new outlet as a 'change in situation' under Section 12(5) read with Rule 27 and file Form INC-22 within thirty days of the date the outlet becomes operational. Maintain a register of additional places of business cross-referenced with GST registration and Shops & Establishments registration.
IT Services
Common issue: IT-services Private Limiteds anticipating future ESOP grants frequently incorporate with a low authorised share capital of ₹1 lakh — equal to the subscribed capital. The ESOP scheme under Section 62(1)(b) then requires an increase in authorised capital under Section 61 and Section 14 AOA amendment, costing time and stamp duty.
How we handle it: Set authorised share capital at incorporation at five to ten times the subscribed capital — typically ₹10 lakh to ₹50 lakh authorised against ₹1 lakh subscribed. The headroom allows ESOP issuance, rights issue and private placement under Section 42 without immediate Section 61 amendment. The incremental SPICe+ stamp duty cost is minimal.
Professional Services
Common issue: Consulting Private Limiteds with husband-wife director combinations frequently overlook Section 188 related-party transaction approval. Any contract between the company and a director or a relative as defined under Section 2(77) read with Rule 4 of the Companies (Specification of Definitions Details) Rules 2014 — including the spouse — needs board approval and prescribed-threshold member approval.
How we handle it: At the first board meeting, document all expected related-party transactions for the year — director remuneration under Section 197, rent of premises owned by a director's relative, professional fees to a relative. Pass omnibus approvals under Section 188(1) within the prescribed thresholds. Disclose in the Board's Report under Section 134(3)(h) and AOC-2.

A flavour of cases we handle nearby — In Broadway, where wholesale trade businesses dominate the local compliance profile.

Stamp dutyRetail

Stamp duty under-payment cured pre-COI by Tamil Nadu Treasury chalan

Issue: A retail private limited with authorised capital of ₹50 lakh under-paid Tamil Nadu stamp duty on the MoA because the calculation used the older slab applicable below ₹10 lakh. SPICe+ flagged a stamp-duty deficiency notice under Article 10 of Schedule I to the Indian Stamp Act read with the Tamil Nadu Stamp Amendment.
Approach: We computed the correct stamp duty at the Tamil Nadu rate applicable to companies with authorised capital between ₹25 lakh and ₹1 crore, paid the deficiency through the e-stamping portal of the Stock Holding Corporation of India, attached the chalan to the SPICe+ resubmission, and referenced Schedule I Article 10 of the Stamp Act in the covering letter.
Outcome: Deficiency cured within 3 working days; SPICe+ Part B accepted on resubmission; COI issued within 5 working days of the second submission; total stamp duty paid ₹6,500 against the initially-paid ₹2,000; the matter illustrates the need for State-specific stamp-duty diligence at SPICe+ stage.
INC-22Hospitality

Registered office change during INC-22 30-day window

Issue: A restaurant private limited incorporated with the founder's residence as registered office wanted to shift to the commercial premises secured for the restaurant within fifteen days of COI. Section 12(4) requires INC-22 to be filed within thirty days of any change of registered office; INC-22 in this case was the inaugural filing too.
Approach: We filed INC-22 capturing the commercial premises with utility bill, registered rent agreement and the property-owner NOC under Rule 25(1)(d) of the Incorporation Rules. A board resolution authorising the registered-office change was passed and attached. The new address fell within the same ROC jurisdiction so no INC-23 Regional Director approval was required.
Outcome: INC-22 accepted on first scrutiny; new registered office reflected in the master data within 7 working days; GST and bank intimations completed; no additional fee under Section 12(8); the matter highlighted the practitioner discipline of completing INC-22 within the statutory window irrespective of business pressures.
Voluntary strike-offRetail

Section 248 voluntary strike-off via STK-2 after operations ceased

Issue: A retail private limited that had ceased operations for over a year wanted a voluntary strike-off under Section 248(2). The challenge was clearing pending compliances and tax dues before STK-2 could be filed — Section 248(2)(c) requires a no-objection from all creditors and all directors-affidavit and indemnity bond in STK-3 and STK-4.
Approach: We filed pending AOC-4 and MGT-7 for the last two financial years to bring the master data current, settled outstanding GST and TDS dues with the help of the company's bank balance, obtained NOCs from the bank and two creditor parties, and filed STK-2 with STK-3 director affidavit, STK-4 indemnity bond and STK-8 audited financial statement up to thirty days before STK-2.
Outcome: STK-2 accepted on first scrutiny; Form STK-7 strike-off notice published in the Official Gazette; the company name struck off the register seventy-five days after STK-2 filing; total professional fee ₹65,000 covering compliance clean-up and strike-off paperwork.
Section 188Hospitality

Section 188 related-party approval for founder's office lease

Issue: A newly incorporated restaurant private limited took its registered office on lease from the founder-director's own proprietorship at a monthly rent of ₹75,000. Section 188(1) requires either ordinary resolution or board approval depending on the threshold ratio, since the founder is a related party under Section 2(76)(iv).
Approach: We computed the proposed transaction against the Rule 15(3) of the Meetings of Board and its Powers Rules thresholds — the annual rent fell within ten per cent of turnover (zero in the first year, prompting the strict reading) — and convened a board meeting under Section 173 to approve the lease as a related-party transaction. The independent valuation report from a registered valuer was annexed; AOC-2 disclosure was prepared for the first annual financials.
Outcome: Board resolution approving the related-party lease passed unanimously; AOC-2 disclosure annexed to the first annual financial statements; the related-party transaction survived the first statutory audit; the company's compliance position on Section 188 was documented for future investor diligence.

Why these Broadway engagements look the way they do: Closer to Broadway, the cluster of wholesale trade, transport, hospitality businesses that defines Broadway's commercial fabric, which is why for Broadway businesses balancing growth ambitions with tight statutory compliance.

“We had two foreign directors based in Singapore. The apostille coordination, DIN application and Section 149(3) resident director planning was handled methodically. INC-9 and Aadhaar e-KYC for the Indian co-founder went through without a single rejection. Highly professional.”

“Our family business required entrenched MOA and AOA to protect the existing partners' rights post-incorporation. FilingPro drafted the AOA under Section 5(3) with specific entrenchment clauses covering share transfer and director appointment. Other consultants we spoke to didn't even know what entrenchment meant.”

“The first board meeting minutes, Section 139(6) auditor appointment, share certificates and statutory registers were all delivered within 30 days of incorporation. INC-20A was filed on day 90 well within the 180-day window. We didn't have to chase anything.”

“Our previous CA missed the Section 10A INC-20A filing for an earlier company and we faced a ₹50,000 penalty plus daily officer penalty. FilingPro tracks every post-incorporation compliance window in a written calendar. That kind of discipline is rare.”

“The custom MOA object clause specifically excluded NBFC and Nidhi activities and stayed within Section 4(1)(c) — important since our business touches lending-adjacent fintech. The certifying professional's review caught one ambiguous sub-clause that could have triggered RBI sectoral NOC. Saved us months of rework.”

Common Questions

Pvt Ltd FAQ — Broadway

Common questions from Broadway clients. Call 9566-068-468 for specific queries.

SPICe+ is the integrated web form notified by MCA effective 23-Feb-2020 replacing the earlier SPICe (INC-32) PDF utility. It has two parts — Part A for name reservation and Part B for incorporation, DIN allotment, mandatory PAN/TAN, EPFO, ESIC, Profession Tax (in Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal) and bank account opening. The linked AGILE-PRO-S (INC-35) carries the GSTIN, EPFO, ESIC, Profession Tax and bank account fields.
SPICe+ filing fee is zero for companies with authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh under the Companies (Incorporation) Amendment Rules 2019 effective 18-Mar-2019. Above ₹15 lakh, fees per the Companies (Registration Offices and Fees) Rules 2014 apply. Stamp duty on MOA/AOA is State-specific. Name reservation under Part A is ₹1,000. Professional fees and DSC charges are separate. PAN/TAN allotment carries no separate fee.
Yes. Broadway sits squarely within the Chennai North area we serve every day, and we have handled Pvt Ltd Company Registration for hospitality and other clients across this part of Chennai. That local familiarity means fewer surprises for you.
Names identical or too nearly resembling an existing company/LLP, names that constitute an offence under any law, names that are undesirable in the opinion of the Central Government, names containing words like 'Board', 'Commission', 'Authority', 'Undertaking', 'National', 'Union', 'Central', 'Federal', 'Republic', 'President', 'Rashtrapati', 'Small Scale Industries', 'Khadi', 'Financial Corporation', 'Municipal' and abbreviations are barred without specific sanction. Words such as Bank, Insurance, Stock Exchange, Mutual Fund, Venture Capital require sectoral regulator NOC.
Common reasons noted by jurisdictional Registrars — name not distinct from existing entity (Rule 8), object clause vague or covering regulated activities without sectoral NOC, mismatch between DSC and DIN PAN, registered office documents older than two months, NOC from owner missing or not signed, certifying professional's COP not active, subscriber address proof not self-attested, paid-up capital declared higher than amount actually subscribed in MOA. Resubmission within 15 days under MCA service standard.
Yes. Every Pvt Ltd engagement is handled with strict confidentiality — your documents and data are used only for your work and never shared. Broadway clients deal with the same trusted team throughout, so your information stays in one place.
Section 11 was omitted in 2015 and reintroduced as Section 10A by the Companies (Amendment) Ordinance 2018. Every company having share capital incorporated on or after 2-Nov-2018 must file INC-20A within 180 days of incorporation declaring that every subscriber has paid the value of shares agreed and that the registered office is verified. Failure attracts penalty of ₹50,000 on the company and ₹1,000 per day per officer up to ₹1,00,000 and triggers Section 248(1)(d) strike-off.
Section 14(1) permits alteration of articles converting a private company into a public company by special resolution. The company files MGT-14 within 30 days, then INC-27 with the Registrar. The word 'Private' is removed from the name and number of members must reach the public-company minimum of seven under Section 3(1)(a) and minimum three directors under Section 149(1). Effective from the date the Registrar issues fresh Certificate of Incorporation.
You can attempt it, but small errors in Pvt Ltd Company Registration often lead to notices, penalties or rejections that cost more to fix than to avoid. For Broadway clients we get it right the first time, which usually works out cheaper and far less stressful.
For first-time directors who do not already hold a DIN, the Director Identification Number is allotted simultaneously with incorporation through SPICe+ Part B itself — a separate DIR-3 application is not required. Section 153 read with Rule 9 of the Companies (Appointment and Qualification of Directors) Rules 2014 governs allotment. Up to three DINs can be applied through SPICe+ for proposed first directors. Existing directors quote their DIN.
A practising Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, Cost Accountant or Advocate is required to certify the SPICe+ application. The professional declares that the documents have been verified, the proposed company complies with all applicable provisions and the registered office has been visited or satisfactorily verified. Misdeclaration attracts penalty under Section 7(5)/(6) and disciplinary action by the respective Institute.
Yes. Broadway has an active base of hospitality and allied businesses, and we regularly handle Pvt Ltd for exactly these kinds of clients. We tailor the approach to your line of work rather than applying a one-size template.
The registered office obligation springs from Section 12. A company must hold an address able to acknowledge correspondence either when it commences operations or by the thirtieth day after the certificate is issued, taking the earlier of the two milestones. Furnishing the address inside SPICe+ at the outset removes any need for a separate INC-22 intimation. Where the founders prefer to defer the address declaration, INC-22 with proof must be lodged inside the thirty-day window. Acceptable proof typically combines a current utility bill, the lease deed or title document, and a written consent from the premises owner.
Section 248(1) empowers the Registrar to strike off the name of a company that has not commenced business within one year of incorporation, or has not been carrying on any business for two preceding financial years and has not made application for dormant status, or where subscribers have not paid up subscription money and INC-20A has not been filed within 180 days. STK-1 notice is issued giving 30 days to respond, followed by STK-5 public notice and STK-7 strike-off notification.
Section 188 read with Rule 15 of the Companies (Meetings of Board and its Powers) Rules 2014 governs RPTs. Board approval is required for transactions with related parties as defined in Section 2(76). Where transactions exceed prescribed limits (10% of turnover for sale/purchase of goods, 10% of net worth for services, etc.) prior approval of members by ordinary resolution is required. The relevant member is interested and cannot vote on the resolution under Section 188(1) proviso.
For owned premises — latest property tax receipt or sale deed in the company's or director's name with utility bill not older than two months. For rented premises — registered/notarised rent agreement, latest utility bill (electricity, gas, telephone landline) not older than two months and No-Objection Certificate from the owner permitting use as registered office. For premises owned by a director/relative — NOC plus the same utility documents.

We serve businesses in every part of Broadway, from Audiappa Naicken Street, Errabalu Chetty Street, General Hospital Road, Muthuswamy Road and North Fort Road to the RBI Subway, Rajaji Salai, Broadway Road and Esplanade commercial pockets, with Pvt Ltd handled end to end.
