OPC Registration Process
OPC registration procedure is easy but a professional would be needed to complete the same. In addition, the procedure has been completely changed by the government in order to promote the ease of doing business. TaxxInn is experienced in OPC registration with an experience of registering more than 10000 OPC and consulting thousands of OPC partnerships throughout India.
The first step of the OPC Registration process is to apply for a Digital Signature Certificate to the directors of the proposed OPC . This is one of the important steps as the registration process of OPC is done online and requires the forms to be digitally signed.
Before the process of registering OPC . We will ask you for a few names of your choices. We need to check the availability of the name to make sure it’s already not taken. Names can be checked on the MCA portal. This is done in order to avoid rejections.
Name Approval or Name Reservation is the method of reserving a unique name via RUN (Reserve Unique Name) submission form. A list of two proposed names of the OPC will be submitted to the authority for approval. The ROC reserves a name out of two names, and the OPC registers with the same name. The Registrar will approve the name only if it is not considered undesirable by the Central Government. Nor name should not relate in any way to any of the existing partnerships, OPC , trademarks or corporate entities.
Once the name has been approved, it is necessary to draft up a Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association. Both MOA and AOA are registered with the declaration of agreement of the MCA.
When the Registrar approves your MOA and AOA, you’re closer to having your OPC licensed. The next step is to obtain an OPC Incorporation Certificate. You can do this by submitting all the documents to the Registrar. The time frame is between 2 and 6 days. Once you have your OPC Incorporation Certificate, you ‘re ready to go
Once the company gets incorporated one has to apply for PAN and TAN. On the other hand one can apply for GST according to the threshold limit. After this, you should submit an Incorporation Certificate, MOA, AOA and PAN to a bank to open your bank account.
Company Name search
The first step of the Company Registration is to ensure that the company name has not been taken by another company. We can search the company name to check the availability of the specific name in India against the MCA and trademark database.
We Suggest the Company to think of three to four elective names during the approval phase of one Person Company(OPC) Registration. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs will be the final authority to approve the name dependent on the availability rules and guidelines.
If your favored name is taken, do remember that the name of your Company doesn’t need to be your brand name. However, in case you’re going to trademark your brand name, likewise, check if it has already been trademarked at http://www.ipindia.gov.in/. In the event that it has been trademarked, If it has been trademarked, you would need a no-objection certificate from its owner to have it approved as your company’s name.
