Company registration in India has forever been a major hassle for entrepreneurs looking to set up their businesses in India. It’s no wonder then that India has been ranked 142nd on the Ease of Doing Business Index and 158th on Ease of Starting a Business. The newly introduced INC-29, a five-in-one form introduced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) in May 2015, will go a long way toward improving this ranking.

The INC-29 doesn’t replace the old procedure (at least not yet), but significantly reduces interaction with the authorities through the clubbing of forms for DIN allotment, name reservation, incorporation, PAN & TAN, as well as ESIC registration. Do note, however, that while INC-29 does begin the PAN & TAN and ESIC registration process, you are still required to submit supporting documents and information on the MCA’s e-biz (ebiz.gov.in) portal (so for now it not clear why PAN, TAN and ESIC details are asked; perhaps the government plans to integrate these later). The INC-29 form has tremendous ramifications on the registration process. If you have registered a company prior to May 2015, you will immediately recognize how much smoother this process can be.
