How to Register a Company in Assam: Step-by-Step Incorporation Guide

Registering a company in Assam is conducted completely online through the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) SPICe+ digital window. Assam entities are chartered under the jurisdiction of the Registrar of Companies (RoC) Shillong. Here is the complete step-by-step roadmap from name reservation to bank account activation.

Stage 1: Procure Digital Signature Certificates (DSC)

Because all corporate filings with the MCA are digital, every proposed director must possess an active Class-3 Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) equipped with a cryptographic USB hardware token. WebArtStudios CAs issue DSCs with video-KYC within 2 hours.

Stage 2: Name Reservation (SPICe+ Part A)

Submit your preferred business name via the SPICe+ Part A online form. Key naming rules enforced by CRC and RoC Shillong include:

  • The name must be unique and not deceptively similar to any existing registered company, LLP, or trademark.
  • It must reflect the primary object of your business (e.g., Technologies, Infra, Logistics, Healthcare, Tea, Agro).
  • It must conclude with the statutory suffix 'Private Limited' or 'Pvt Ltd'.

Stage 3: Drafting Constitutional Charters (e-MOA & e-AOA)

Our Chartered Accountants draft your electronic Memorandum of Association (e-MOA, Form INC-33) detailing the company's authorized objects, and the electronic Articles of Association (e-AOA, Form INC-34) governing internal board rules, share transfers, and voting procedures.

Stage 4: Integrated SPICe+ Part B & AGILE-PRO-S Filing

Form SPICe+ Part B integrates statutory approvals into a single digital application:

  1. 1. Company Incorporation: Allocation of the 21-digit Corporate Identity Number (CIN).
  2. 2. Director Identification Numbers (DIN): Issued directly to up to 3 directors.
  3. 3. Permanent Account Number (PAN) & TAN: Issued simultaneously by the CBDT.
  4. 4. EPFO & ESIC Registrations: Mandatory labor welfare identities.
  5. 5. Assam Professional Tax (P-Tax): State-level employer tax code.
  6. 6. Corporate Bank Account: Integrated instant opening with partner banks (HDFC, ICICI, SBI, Axis).

Stage 5: Certificate of Incorporation (COI) & Post-Incorporation Steps

Upon verification, RoC Shillong issues the Certificate of Incorporation (COI). Within 180 days, you must open your bank account, deposit your subscribed share capital, and file Form INC-20A (Commencement of Business) to commence operational transactions lawfully.
