What a Startup Needs Before Operating
Choose your structure
the table above is the starting point; the right answer depends on your specific plans, not a general rule.
Complete formation and registration
documentation varies by structure, but PAN, address proof, and founder/director KYC are common to all.
Handle additional registrations your activity requires
GST, Udyam, IEC, FSSAI, Shops & Establishments, Professional Tax, DSC, and others, depending on what you actually do and where.
Set up compliance from day one
ROC filings, GST returns, and bookkeeping are easier to build in from the start than retrofit later.
After Registration: What Comes Next
Incorporation isn't the finish line. Right after, most businesses need to:
-
Open a current bank account in the company's name
-
Apply for GST registration, if applicable to your turnover or activity
-
Register under Udyam/MSME, if eligible — it's free and unlocks real benefits (collateral-free loans, priority lending, GeM tender access)
-
Set up bookkeeping and a compliance calendar before the first filing deadline arrives
-
File INC-20A (commencement of business declaration) within 180 days if the company has share capital
Beyond Registration: Other Requirements That May Apply
Not every business needs every registration — it depends on activity, structure, turnover, location, and employee count. Depending on your situation, you may need:
Business Funding & Loan Support
Some startups need external funding for equipment, hiring, or working capital. We help you understand what's relevant to your situation — including documentation for schemes like CGTMSE (collateral-free lending), Mudra loans, and PMEGP, where applicable, alongside standard bank and NBFC routes.
Final approval, interest rates, and terms are set by the lender, not by us — our role is making sure your documentation doesn't become the reason for a delay.
From Idea to Operations: How We Work

activity, founders, location, and objectives.
Identify the right structure
compare options against your actual circumstances.
Prepare documentation
for the registration or process you're moving forward with.
