How much does it cost to register a Private Limited Company in India?

The main variable is state stamp duty — from nil in Sikkim to ₹7,550 in Madhya Pradesh at ₹1 lakh authorised capital. Add ~₹1,500 per director for a Digital Signature Certificate and a professional/CA fee. The MCA government filing fee is nil up to ₹15 lakh authorised capital.

Does company registration cost differ by state?

Yes — stamp duty on incorporation is set by each state's Stamp Act, so the same company costs more to register in one state than another. The government (MCA) fee and DSC cost are the same everywhere; only stamp duty changes. This calculator uses the actual figure for your state.

Is an LLP cheaper to register than a Pvt Ltd?

LLPs are generally lighter on annual compliance, but LLP stamp duty is levied on the LLP agreement and varies by state and capital contribution, so it isn't directly comparable. A Pvt Ltd is usually preferred if you plan to raise equity from investors.

Which state is cheapest to register a company in?

At ₹1 lakh authorised capital, incorporation stamp duty ranges from nil in Sikkim and about ₹41 in Dadra & Nagar Haveli up to ₹10,025 in Punjab and ₹7,550 in Madhya Pradesh. In practice you should register where your business actually operates — the stamp-duty saving rarely outweighs the hassle of being registered in the wrong state.

What is a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)?

A DSC is the digital equivalent of a handwritten signature, used to sign incorporation forms and future filings with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Every proposed director or partner needs one; it costs roughly ₹1,500 and is typically valid for one to three years.

Do I need a minimum capital to register a company?

No. There is no minimum paid-up capital to register a Private Limited Company or OPC in India — you can incorporate with a nominal amount. Authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh carries no MCA government fee, which is why most startups register at ₹1 lakh.

Is GST registration included in this cost?

No. This estimate covers incorporation only — stamp duty, Digital Signature Certificates and the professional fee. GST registration, trademark filing, and ongoing annual compliance (auditor, ROC filings) are separate costs.

How long does company registration take?

Usually a few working days to about two weeks once your documents are in order, depending on name approval and MCA processing times. This calculator estimates the cost, not the timeline.

What is included in this estimate?

State stamp duty, Digital Signature Certificates for each director or partner, and a typical professional fee. The MCA government fee is nil up to ₹15 lakh authorised capital. It excludes GST registration, trademark and ongoing annual compliance.

Company registration cost in Mizoram

Registering a Private Limited Company in Mizoram attracts ₹260 in incorporation stamp duty at ₹1 lakh authorised capital, on top of a Digital Signature Certificate for each director and a professional fee. Stamp duty is the only component set by the state — the MCA government fee (nil up to ₹15 lakh capital) and DSC costs are the same across India.

That sits roughly mid-range for India, where the median state charges about ₹620 in stamp duty at ₹1 lakh authorised capital.

What goes into the cost

State stamp duty: Levied on incorporation by the state. The one component that changes from state to state, and the main driver of the total.
Digital Signature Certificate (DSC): Each director or partner needs one to sign filings — roughly ₹1,500 each as a market estimate.
Professional / CA fee: What your CA or filing service charges to prepare and file the forms. Edit the field to match a real quote.
MCA government fee: The Ministry of Corporate Affairs charges nil for authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh, so most startups pay nothing here.

Which structure should you register?

Most founders in Mizoram register a Private Limited Company if they plan to raise funding, or an LLP for a services business with lighter compliance. A One Person Company is the option for a solo founder who still wants limited liability. Pick a structure below to see its specific cost in Mizoram.
