A company or LLP costs more to set up and run, but gives limited liability and is easier to raise money in.

What the estimate covers

  • Government registration fees and stamp duty for the structure you pick.
  • Licences you tick, at their government fee.
  • Annual ROC filing fees for the first year, filed on time.
  • Our professional fees, if you include them, with GST.

Income tax, GST returns, audit and rent are not included because they depend on your turnover and location.

These calculators give indicative figures to help you plan. Government fees, tax rates and stamp duty change from time to time and depend on your exact facts. Confirm the final amount on the official portal or with our team before you file or pay.
