You're comparing. Good.
Here's the honest picture. No fine print.
We charge ₹999 with free accounting software and a compliance dashboard.
“Honestly didn't expect it to be this smooth. Submitted everything on a Monday, got my incorporation certificate by Thursday. The whole thing was online: didn't have to visit any office or chase anyone.”
“I'd already got quotes from two other firms: both wanted ₹7-8K just for registration. GoLegally bundled it with compliance for way less. Plus I could actually see where things were at instead of sending follow-up emails.”
Behind the scenes
While you wait, here's what we're doing
Digital Signature & DIN
We get DSC and Director Identification Numbers for all proposed directors. Takes 1-2 days.
Name Reservation (RUN)
Reserve a name that reflects your non-profit objectives. MCA has specific naming rules for Section 8 companies.
License Application (INC-12)
This is unique to Section 8. We apply for a license from the Central Government proving your objects are charitable. This step takes 10-15 days.
MOA & AOA Drafting
We draft your Memorandum and Articles of Association with non-profit clauses. Profits must be used for the company's objects, not distributed to members.
SPICe+ Filing
Once the license is granted, we file the incorporation form with MCA along with all supporting documents.
Incorporation & Tax Setup
You receive your Certificate of Incorporation, PAN, and TAN. We then guide you on 12A and 80G registration for tax exemptions.
Everything included:
- Full incorporation filing
- DSC & DIN for directors
- PAN, TAN & Certificate
- Free accounting software
- Post-incorporation checklist
- Compliance calendar & reminders
Every company must file annual paperwork with the government. Skip it and fines start at ₹100/day.

Real questions from founders like you.
What is a Section 8 Company?
A Section 8 Company is a non-profit organization registered under the Companies Act. It can be formed for promoting commerce, art, science, education, research, social welfare, charity, or any other useful purpose. Profits are applied towards promoting the company's objects and cannot be distributed as dividends.
How is Section 8 different from a Trust or Society?
Section 8 Company has better governance (Companies Act compliance), more credibility with donors and government grants, and easier to convert to a regular company later. Trusts are simpler but have weaker governance. Societies vary by state law. For serious non-profits seeking CSR funding, Section 8 is preferred.
Can a Section 8 Company accept donations?
Yes. After getting 12A and 80G registration from Income Tax, your donors get tax deductions on their donations. This makes your organization more attractive to both individual and corporate donors (CSR funding).
What is the minimum requirement?
Minimum 2 directors (at least 1 Indian resident) and 2 members. You need a registered office address and a clear set of non-profit objectives. No minimum capital requirement.
Why does Section 8 take longer than Pvt Ltd?
The extra time is for the INC-12 license application. The Central Government must verify that your objectives are genuinely charitable before granting the license. This review takes 10-15 additional days on top of normal incorporation.
