Every quote shows the professional fee, government charges and taxes as separate lines — you approve the full breakup in writing before paying anything.
Stamp duty, filing fees and department charges go to the government, not to us. They vary by state, capital and applicant count, so we show them separately for your case.

Overview
What is meant by patent provisional registration ?
A patent is a legal document which provides the license by the government regarding protecting the legal rights such as a right to ownership etc. Patent are usually granted to an inventor in form of products, methods, software, technical application or even art which have utility or are capable of industrial or domestic application. The patent application can be filed in different ways which includes complete application, Provisional application, Convention application, Patent cooperation treaty-international application and all others which are filed for registration of patent. A provisional patent application may be filed even in a case where the idea of the invention is not completely mature.
The provisional patent is a type of patent that is usually applied at an early stage of the invention to secure their invention. For provisional patent preliminary application is made before filing a usual patent, it explains the invention in a broad manner but not completely. After filing the provisional patent, the patent holder has a time period of 1 year for filing complete specification. Provisional patent application contains basic information regarding the patent.

Verified against MCA requirements
What is a CIN?
Every Private Limited Company gets a unique 21-character Corporate Identification Number from the MCA. It's proof your company legally exists. You'll need it for bank accounts, tax filings, and contracts. We handle the entire application — you just provide the documents above.
Not sure if your documents are ready?
Send us what you have. A ComplyKart expert will review them for free and tell you exactly what's missing — no obligation.
Get Free Document ReviewQuestions Founders ask us about documents
What if my address proof is old?
Utility bills and bank statements must be less than 2 months old. If yours are older, get a fresh copy — the MCA rejects stale proofs.
Do I need original documents?
No. Clear scans or photos work for the entire process. We never ask you to courier originals.
What if directors live in different cities?
That's normal. Each director uploads their own documents separately. Our system keeps everything organised.
I'm outside India. Can I still register a company?
Yes. India allows 100% foreign ownership in most sectors, and the entire process happens online. You need one Indian resident director, and your passport + address proof must be apostilled — we'll guide you through both. NRI founders and foreign investors do this with us regularly.
Check if you're eligible →How long does registration actually take?
7 to 10 working days from the day your documents are verified. Name approval takes 2-3 days, MCA incorporation another 5-7. We track every stage and update you.
Can I start if I'm missing one document?
Yes. Start now with what you have — we begin name reservation and DSC while you arrange the rest. Most founders are missing one proof; it rarely blocks the timeline.
