Private limited company registration in Bengaluru
Pvt Ltd company registration in Bengaluru is filed online through MCA's SPICe+ form, so a founder with a unit in Peenya follows the same route as one with a desk in Koramangala. Two directors and two shareholders are enough, the same two people can fill both roles, and the law asks for no minimum capital.
What is particular to Bengaluru is the paperwork around the filing: a BESCOM bill for the office, confirming which GBA city corporation your address falls in, and professional tax requested inside the incorporation form itself. Our Chartered Accountants and Company Secretaries handle it all remotely, and explain each form in Kannada if you prefer.

Benefits of a private limited company for Bengaluru businesses
A funding-ready structure
Investors generally come in by subscribing to shares, and a private limited company is the usual structure for equity rounds.
Shares for your team
An ESOP pool lets a young company offer engineers a stake in its growth, not salary alone.
A record others can check
A public CIN on MCA records gives a larger manufacturer's vendor team, a tender authority or a bank a reference to verify, which helps a KIADB unit seeking supplier approval.
Continuity
Perpetual succession keeps the company going when directors change, and ownership moves by share transfer.
Limited liability
Shareholders' liability is generally limited to the amount unpaid on their shares, though personal exposure can still arise in some situations, such as fraud or a personal guarantee.
If you are still comparing a Pvt Ltd with an LLP or OPC, our page on company registration in Bengaluru sets the options side by side.
Plan Your Bengaluru Company With a CA
Tell us your activity, co-founders and intended office, whether a shared desk in HSR Layout or a unit in Peenya, and we will suggest a structure and capital to match.
Pvt Ltd company registration in Bengaluru: eligibility and documents
Who can form the company
Documents from each founder
Indian founders provide a PAN (mandatory), an identity proof (Aadhaar, voter ID, passport or driving licence), a bank statement or utility or mobile bill no older than 2 months, a photo, an email address and a mobile number. NRI and foreign founders generally provide a passport and address proof notarised and apostilled in their home country, or consularised outside the Hague Convention exact requirements depend on the country and status.
Office proof, including co-working desks in Koramangala, HSR Layout and Indiranagar
The registered office needs a BESCOM electricity bill no older than 2 months (BESCOM distributes power in Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural, among other areas), the owner's NOC, and the rent agreement if rented. Co-working centres in Koramangala, HSR Layout and Indiranagar can serve as a first address. For these, provide the operator's agreement, its NOC and a recent bill for the premises, and pick a plan where official post is actually received, since notices must reach the company there.
A name check from our files
In Karnataka, names often carry initials for a native place or a parent. A director may appear as "K. R. Shwetha" on her PAN, where K is for Kunigal, her family's town, and R for her father Ramesh, yet as "Shwetha Kunigal Ramesh" on her passport. In our experience, differences like this can get DSC and SPICe+ applications returned, so we compare each founder's PAN, Aadhaar and address proof line by line before the DSC is applied for.
A short call with your scans at hand is usually enough for us to spot such points before any form is signed.
How to register a private limited company in Bengaluru: step by step
Fix the basics. We agree the main objects, shareholding, authorised capital and the Bengaluru address.
Digital signatures. Each director obtains a digital signature certificate after video or Aadhaar verification.
Name reservation in SPICe+ Part A. You can propose up to two names, with one resubmission, and an approved name is held for 20 days while Part B is filed. You are welcome to check company name availability first we then search MCA and trademark records. Names are usually refused if they resemble an existing company, LLP or trademark, use words like Bank, Insurance, National or Board without approval, do not match the main objects, or suggest a government link.
Part B (INC-32). We draft the e-MoA (INC-33), e-AoA (INC-34), DIR-2 and INC-9 declarations and AGILE-PRO-S (INC-35). DINs, PAN and TAN are applied for in the same form and, because the office is in Karnataka, so is professional tax. EPFO and ESIC registration are requested in the same form, along with a bank account, and GSTIN is optional.
E-sign and pay. Directors sign with their DSCs MCA fees are paid online.
Certificate. MCA's Central Registration Centre (CRC) processes the application centrally, and MCA issues the Certificate of Incorporation with the CIN, PAN and TAN.
| Step | Indicative working days |
|---|---|
| DSCs issued to the directors | 1–2 |
| Name cleared under Part A | 1–3 |
| Part B drafted and lodged | 1–2 |
| CRC processing up to the certificate | 3–5 |
| First call to certificate | typically 7–10 working days, subject to MCA processing, as some steps overlap |
These are indicative stage times, not an MCA commitment MCA's processing decides the final date.
The reasoning behind each SPICe+ form is explained at greater length in our private limited company registration guide.
Pvt Ltd company registration fees in Bengaluru
Government charges are paid together with the SPICe+ filing. Reserving the name through SPICe+ Part A costs ₹1,000 per application (up to two proposed names), PAN and TAN are included in the SPICe+ payment, and there is no MCA filing fee while authorised capital stays within ₹15 lakh.
DSCs are extra, priced by the certifying provider, and our professional fee is in the packages above. State-wide rules, including professional tax, are on our page on private limited company registration in Karnataka.
A CA's tip on capital: size authorised capital to your first share issue it can be increased later.

Send your documents and we will check the name, prepare SPICe+ and arrange DSC verification by video, so your Bengaluru company is ready to file.
Bengaluru's city corporations, trade licence and local registrations
Five city corporations under the GBA
Under the Greater Bengaluru Governance Act, 2024, a Karnataka Gazette notification of 2 September 2025 created five city corporations under the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA): Bengaluru West, South, North, East and Central. Your registered office address places the company in one of them.
Keep one distinction in mind. The Bengaluru South City Corporation is not Bengaluru South district, which is the former Ramanagara district, renamed on 23 May 2025 and headquartered in Ramanagara town. Where an address says "Bengaluru South", we confirm which one it means.
GBA trade licence
Trade licences in the city are issued through the GBA's trade licence online service. Whether you need one depends on your activity, so we review what the company will make, sell or service and arrange the trade licence where it applies.
Shops & Establishments on e-Karmika, and professional tax
Registration under the Karnataka Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1961, is made on the e-Karmika portal, separately from SPICe+ our shop and establishment licence team confirms the current requirements first. Professional tax is easier: Karnataka is one of three states where AGILE-PRO-S covers PT, so our professional tax registration team requests it with incorporation. The salary slabs are on our Karnataka page linked above.
GST (29) and the first 180 days
A Bengaluru GSTIN begins with 29. Request it through AGILE-PRO-S or register within 30 days of becoming liable companies making inter-state taxable supplies of goods, including exports, generally register from the start under Section 24 of the CGST Act, subject to limited notified exemptions (e.g. CBIC notification 08/2017-IT for handicraft goods 10/2017-IT covers services only). Our GST registration team handles either route.
Then open the bank account and bring in the share money, hold the first board meeting and appoint the first auditor within 30 days, issue share certificates within 2 months, and file INC-20A within 180 days. Our article on post-incorporation compliances takes each in turn.
ROC Bengaluru at Koramangala: address and contact
MCA's CRC processes the incorporation. After that, the Registrar of Companies, Bengaluru, handles your annual filings, later changes, notices and any adjudication, and it is the only Registrar of Companies for Karnataka.
These details are listed on the MCA ROC contact page. No visit to Kendriya Sadana is needed to form the company. Moving the registered office to another state later is a separate process.
Private limited company registration across Bengaluru's business areas
The filing is the same across the city the premises and follow-up registrations differ.
Koramangala
Home to ROC Bengaluru, though your filings reach it online.
HSR Layout
Confirm that your co-working plan includes handling official post.
Indiranagar
A family-owned home works with the owner's NOC and a BESCOM bill in the owner's name.
Whitefield
Founders living here but working elsewhere can use either address, if notices reliably reach it.
For manufacturers, the KIADB industrial areas in Bengaluru Urban each bring a practical check:
Peenya
A unit can be the registered office with its own bill and NOC free Udyam registration can follow incorporation.
Bommasandra and Jigani
Units selling goods to other states should plan GST from the start.
Electronic City (Phases II and III)
Units hiring from day one request PT in SPICe+, then register on e-Karmika.
EPIP (Export Promotion Industrial Park)
Export-focused units arrange the IEC from DGFT before the first shipment.
Startup support in Bengaluru
The Karnataka Startup Cell sits within the Department of Electronics, IT, BT and S&T, and the Karnataka Innovation and Technology Society (KITS) works alongside it. The Karnataka Startup Policy 2025–2030 and the ELEVATE programme set the state's current framework check each programme's official terms before applying.
Nationally, a new company can seek Startup India recognition from DPIIT, subject to its conditions. Our article on private limited company registration in Bengaluru for startups covers the founder side in more depth.
Why Bengaluru founders choose Kanakkupillai
We serve Bengaluru fully online from our corporate office in Adambakkam, Chennai. There is no Bengaluru office, and none is needed: DSC verification is by video or Aadhaar, documents travel as scans and every form is e-signed.
Kannada first, with Tamil, English, Hindi, Malayalam and Telugu also available.
Professional tax, and GST if you want it, requested within SPICe+.
Authorised capital matched to your first share issue.
Founder KYC checked for native-place initials before DSCs.
The same CA/CS team for INC-20A, e-Karmika and annual filings.
Example: a Peenya precision-parts partnership becoming a private limited company
The situation: Two partners machine precision parts for electronics assemblers from a rented unit in Peenya. Both live in Whitefield. They want to carry the business into a private limited company, bring in a family member as a third shareholder and hire more machinists.
What we plan together:
Unit or home as the registered office
The Peenya unit needs its BESCOM bill, the landlord's NOC and the rent agreement a Whitefield home needs its own bill and the owner's NOC. They choose the address where post will reliably be handled.
Trade licence for the activity
We check whether machining at the unit calls for a trade licence and arrange it where required.
PT with incorporation
As salaries start straight away, professional tax goes into AGILE-PRO-S, and e-Karmika registration follows.
What the founders do: share scans of their KYC and the unit's papers, complete DSC verification by video and e-sign each form, without travelling to Chennai or Koramangala.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does pvt ltd company registration in Bangalore take?
Usually 7 to 10 working days, depending on how quickly MCA processes the application. The CRC handles every incorporation centrally, so a Bengaluru address neither speeds it up nor slows it down. A distinctive name and founder names that match across PAN, Aadhaar and address proof help most.What are the pvt ltd company registration fees in Bangalore?
Government charges cover the name reservation fee of ₹1,000 per SPICe+ Part A application (up to two proposed names), with PAN and TAN included in the SPICe+ payment; no MCA filing fee applies up to 15 lakh of authorised capital. DSCs and our professional fee are extra.Is the Bengaluru South City Corporation the same as Bengaluru South district?
No. The Bengaluru South City Corporation is one of the five city corporations under the Greater Bengaluru Authority. Bengaluru South district is the former Ramanagara district, renamed in May 2025, with its headquarters in Ramanagara town. We confirm which one your address falls in.Does my Bengaluru company need a GBA trade licence?
It depends on the activity. Trade licences are issued through the Greater Bengaluru Authority's online service, and whether one applies turns on what the company makes, sells or services. We review your activity and arrange the licence where it is needed.Can a co-working desk in HSR Layout or Koramangala be our registered office?
Yes, in most cases. You will need the operator's agreement, its NOC and a recent utility bill for the premises. Choose a plan where official letters are received and passed on to you, since the company must be able to receive notices at that address.Can professional tax be registered along with incorporation in Bengaluru?
Yes. Karnataka is one of three states where AGILE-PRO-S, filed with SPICe+, covers professional tax registration, so a Bengaluru company can request it in the incorporation filing.
