Company Registration Cost in Bihar

Quick Answer

Registering a company in Bihar costs three things added together: Shunya's flat ₹1,999 professional fee, MCA government filing fees (the same national slabs that apply anywhere in India), and Bihar stamp duty on your incorporation documents (around ₹1,520 for a Pvt Ltd company at ₹1 lakh authorized capital, scaling up from there). Only the professional fee is fixed — stamp duty depends on your structure and your authorized capital, and is confirmed exactly during your free consultation call, not on this page.

What company registration costs in Bihar — the three components

Founders registering in Bihar should expect their total bill to be made up of three separate pieces. Understanding each one separately makes it easy to see exactly what you are paying for and to spot a quote that has quietly left something out.

Professional fee — fixed at ₹1,999

Shunya charges the same flat professional fee of ₹1,999 for company registration in Bihar as it does everywhere else in India, whether you are registering a Private Limited Company, an LLP, or an OPC. This covers preparing your application, filing it with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), and handling any queries the government raises. Government fees and stamp duty are always billed separately, so you know exactly what portion is going to the government and what is going toward the service.

MCA government filing fee — set nationally, not by Bihar

The MCA's filing fee structure is the same across India, so this component does not change because you are registering in Bihar specifically. It can still move depending on your authorized capital, since higher authorized capital slabs attract higher MCA fees, but the slab structure itself is identical whether your registered office is in Patna or anywhere else in the country.

Bihar stamp duty — the state-specific, variable piece

This is the part that is genuinely specific to Bihar, and it is also the number most likely to differ between the sources you find while researching online. Bihar charges stamp duty on the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association as a flat ₹500 plus 0.15% of authorized capital, subject to a minimum of ₹1,000 and a maximum (cap) of ₹5 lakh. For a Private Limited Company incorporated with ₹1 lakh authorized capital, this works out to around ₹1,520, and it scales up as your authorized capital increases. Treat this figure as approximate and indicative rather than final — the purpose of a number like this is to help you plan roughly, and your CA confirms the exact stamp duty for your specific authorized capital during your free consultation call, before you pay anything beyond the professional fee.

For an LLP, Bihar's stamp duty on the LLP agreement typically works out to approximately ₹2,500. As with the Pvt Ltd figure, treat this as a typical number rather than a fixed one — it is confirmed exactly on your consultation call.

Professional Tax in Bihar

Bihar is one of the states that levies Professional Tax, applicable to companies as well as to employees' salaries once you start running payroll. This is a recurring, ongoing state compliance obligation rather than a one-time incorporation charge, but it is worth budgeting for from day one since it is specific to states like Bihar and does not apply uniformly across India.

RoC jurisdiction in Bihar

ROC Patna handles company filings for the entire state of Bihar. Unlike larger states such as Maharashtra, which are split across multiple regional Registrar of Companies offices, Bihar is served by a single RoC office — so wherever your registered office is located within the state, your incorporation filing goes through ROC Patna.
