If our experts find your requirement can't be fulfilled as scoped, you get a full refund of the professional fee — no questions, no fine print. Government charges already paid are pass-through and go to the government, not us.
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.
The free consultation comes first. You only pay after you have seen the exact scope, the exact breakup and the expected timeline — no surprises later.

Overview
Overview
The main feature of a Public Limited Company that differentiates it from a private limited company is that it is authorized to sell shares on an open stock market. More suitable for medium and large sized businesses, this should be your preferred choice if you’re planning to raise funds from general public through Initial Public Offering (IPO). A company capable of raising more money from public is bigger one and also trusted one. So if you want to grow, public company is most suitable form of business
Incorporation of a public company requires a minimum of 3 directors and 7 members with no upper limit on membership. One of the directors must be a resident of India, i.e., should have stayed in India for not less than 182 days in the previous calendar year.
Also, any natural/artificial person, LLP, OPC or any other registered public company can become a member by purchasing stocks. A Public limited company have all the advantages of Private Limited Company and the ability to have any number of members, ease in transfer of shareholding and more transparency.

Benefits
Advantages of Public limited company
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Separate Legal Entity with Limited Liability
A company is a legal entity and a juristic person established under the Companies Act. Therefore it has wide legal capacity, can own property and also incur debts in its own name. The members (Shareholders/Directors) have no liability to the creditors of the company for such debts.
Ownership
A company being a juristic person, can acquire, own, enjoy and alienate, property in its name. The shares of a public limited company are sold on open market, and can be listed on BSE, NSE etc. Being a larger enterprise, a public company allows some degree of separation between operations and ownership.
Fund Generation
Being larger enterprises, Public Limited Companies require larger investment. However, they also enjoy certain additional privileges regarding investment and funding. These companies can list their shares on NSE and BSE, and can also raise funds from general public through IPOs.
Accepatnce of Deposit
Only Public Limited Companies can accept Deposits from public under Companies Act, 2013. These companies attract considerable Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the form of foreign loans and equity participation, as India’s Foreign Exchange Laws have areas open for the same.
Easy transferability
Simply selling the shares can transfer ownership. It can be accomplished by filing and signing a Share Transfer Form and handing it over to the buyer along with the Share Certificate.
More Transparent
Owing to the stringent regulations such as transparency in matters of executive compensation, book of accounts, legal settlements etc., Public Limited Companies are considered to be the most transparent of all business structures in India.
Documents
Documents required for Public Limited Company Registration
Clear, current documents matter more than a long checklist. Names, dates of birth and addresses should match across every record — that's what the MCA checks first. Tick what you already have below.
Identity and address proof (all directors & shareholders)
Verified against MCA requirements
Registered office proof
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.
Process
Public Limited Company Registration process — step by step
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Check eligibility and structure
A public limited company needs a minimum of 3 directors and 7 shareholders, with no maximum. It suits businesses that plan to raise capital from the public or list on a stock exchange later.
Get DSCs for the directors
Each proposed director needs a Digital Signature Certificate to sign the online incorporation filings with the MCA.
Reserve the company name (SPICe+ Part A)
We propose two preferred names to the MCA through SPICe+ Part A. Names must end with "Limited" and avoid similarity with existing companies or trademarks.
Draft MOA and AOA
The MOA and AOA define your company's objects, share capital and internal rules. For a public company these must reflect the wider shareholder base and capital-raising intent.
File SPICe+ with the MCA
We file SPICe+ covering incorporation, DIN allotment for directors, and PAN and TAN, plus AGILE-PRO-S for GST, EPFO, ESI and Shops & Establishment registration.
Receive Certificate of Incorporation
The MCA issues the Certificate of Incorporation with your CIN, along with PAN and TAN. A public company cannot commence business until it files the declaration of commencement and gets its certificate — we handle that next step too.
