Company incorporation in India involves legally registering a business entity under the Companies Act, 2013. The process includes obtaining a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC), reserving a unique company name through the SPICe+ form, submitting required incorporation documents such as Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA), and obtaining the Certificate of Incorporation from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Once incorporated, the company is assigned a Corporate Identification Number (CIN), PAN, and TAN automatically.
Company compliance post incorporation includes maintaining statutory registers, filing annual returns and financial statements with the RoC, conducting board meetings as per schedule, adhering to tax registrations like GST, and complying with applicable labor or industry-specific laws. Compliance ensures legal continuity, accountability, and avoids penalties
