Frequently asked questions
- Cost depends on the entity: a Private Limited Company involves MCA filing fees and stamp duty scaled to authorised capital, while DPIIT Startup India recognition itself carries no government fee. Finthink shares a single fixed quote covering incorporation, DSCs and DPIIT.
- Incorporation is typically complete in 10–15 working days once DSCs and name approval are in place. DPIIT recognition follows in a further 5–15 working days.
- No. Company registration with the MCA creates the legal entity. DPIIT recognition is a separate Startup India status granted to an already-incorporated entity and is what unlocks the tax holiday, self-certification and IPR benefits.
- Yes. A residential address can be the registered office if you provide a recent electricity bill and an NOC from the owner. It can be changed later by filing INC-22 with the MCA.
- Section 80-IAC allows a DPIIT-recognised startup to claim 100% deduction of profits for any three consecutive years out of its first ten years, subject to approval by the Inter-Ministerial Board. Only Private Limited Companies and LLPs qualify.
- Choose Private Limited if you plan to raise external funding or issue ESOPs — investors require it. An LLP is cheaper to run and suits services businesses with no funding plans, but cannot issue equity to investors.
