    3. Verification of company name

    The company name is checked and verified in this step to ensure that it complies with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs' (MCA) requirement.

     

    4. Draft the MOA and AOA

    Next, the proprietor must draft the Memorandum of Association and the Articles of Association.

     

    5. Filling out the Form

    The applicant would file the application form to obtain the certificate of incorporation once the name of the company had been approved by the appropriate authorities.

     

    6. Document Submission

    After completing the aforementioned steps, the applicant must submit all necessary paperwork to the MCA.

     

    7. Company Incorporation

    The MCA and Registrar of Companies will issue the company's certificate of incorporation after confirming the procedure.

    Benefits of Conversion of Proprietorship into Company

    Limited Liability

    The status of being legally responsible only for a limited amount of a company's debts. As a result, where a company is limited by shares, the members' liability on a winding-up is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. This means that if you have no balance payable on the number of shares you own, you are not liable to the company for any debt or credit amount that remains unpaid.

     

    Fund Raising

    In India, the only type of business that can raise funds from Venture Capitalists or Angel Investors is a Private Limited Company.

     

    Perpetual Succession

    This refers to the idea that even after a proprietorship business dies, the entity will continue to exist; however, it is not applicable to private limited companies. Even if a particular employee left, the business would continue to run.

     

    Better Reputation

    Compared to a sole proprietorship business, a private limited company would unquestionably have a better reputation. Due to its registration with the MCA, this registration will increase the company's reputation in the public's eyes.
