Submitting the required documents is a key part of all government registrations. For registering your pvt ltd company, knowing what you need in advance can help you speed up the process and avoid delays caused by mistakes.
The registration process for a Private Limited Company is completely online. You fill the forms, gather the required documents, and upload them all into the MCA portal.

Important Things to Note
Name on PAN
A scanned copy of the PAN card is mandatory identity proof, which needs to be submitted for the registration process. The name on the PAN card will be in all other matters relating to the company as well as the registration process. Hence, in case of any changes required (the change of spelling, surname change after marriage, or any such anomalies due to spelling errors) ensure that you have rectified it before submitting the document.
Other Proofs
All other proofs should have the same name as on the PAN card. In case they are different, please rectify them before submitting them to the RoC.
Latest Bills
All utility bills must be latest, or recent (two to three months old, at worst). If they are older than this, the RoC may reject the application. Hence, to save time, submit the latest bill.
NoC Required
The owner of the property the company is being registered to must provide a no-objection certificate. Submitting the no-objection certificate is obligatory when the property is being registered to the company. If your parents or landlord own the property, speak to them before you get the procedure to start. In case you feel you will not be able to get this document, ask a friend to register the business to their property. It does not matter where the property is registered. It is merely a correspondence address.
The Registrar of Companies (RoC) is very particular about the documents you submit during the company registration process. Since the process is online, there is no room for asking anyone if what you are submitting is correct until it reaches the RoC. The slightest mistake can result in the process getting delayed for a few weeks.
