In India, there are many options available for starting a business. For instance, Indian Residents and business people can open partnerships or proprietorships or LLPs or Limited Companies (Private Limited Company and Public Limited Company).

Similarly, foreign companies and residents can establish either branch office or liaison office or project office or Subsidiary company or Joint Ventures. Subsidiary companies and Joint Ventures can again be either Private Limited companies or Public Limited Companies.

All the entities have their pros and cons, and the selection of entity normally depends upon the nature of the business activity and plans of businesses.

  • In the case of a Private Limited Company, the shareholders have limited liability whereas, in the case of proprietorship and Partnership, the owners/partners have unlimited liability.
  • It is a preferable form of entity for startup registration.

    Once a company is registered, the following other compliance needs to be done by every company:

    1. For selling goods or providing services, GST registration needs to be taken.
    2. For doing export and import business, Import Export Code (IEC) need to be taken.
    3. The company’s first board meeting is to be held, and auditors need to be appointed within 30 days of incorporation.
    4. Certificate of commencement of business needs to be applied with MCA within 180 days of incorporation.
    5. In the case of subsidiary companies, once share subscription money is received in the Indian bank account of the company from foreign shareholders, RBI and ROC compliance need to be done. RBI needs to be intimated about the receipt of share subscription money by filing relevant forms. Also, shares allotment need to be done and intimated to ROC.
    6. Tax and Regulatory compliances need to be done like
    1. Accounting
    2. Monthly/Quarterly GST returns Filing- 16 returns or 24 returns per year.
    3. Quarterly TDS returns Filing- 8 returns per year.
    4. Preparing BS, PL,
    5. Conducting statutory audits,
    6. Conducting Tax audits,

    Compliances above need to be done by every company every year, even if the company has NIL sales or profits. Failure to do so will result in heavy penalties and interest.

    Accordingly, in a private limited company, at least 35-40 different returns need to be filed before regulatory authorities every year. Further, accounting and audit need to be done.

    Therefore, compliance cost in the case of a private limited company is high. However, since it has many advantages and is subject to audits, it has reliability and authenticity in the eyes of bankers, investors and other stakeholders. Also, it has a brand and reputation, which makes it the most popular form of business entity in India.
