Company Registration Cost in Delhi

Last updated 24 August 2026

What company registration costs in Delhi — the components

Like anywhere in India, your Delhi company registration bill has three moving parts: a professional fee, MCA government filing fees, and state stamp duty. The professional fee and MCA fee structure are the same nationally — what changes state to state is stamp duty, and in Delhi's case, the absence of an extra recurring tax that founders elsewhere have to plan for.

Professional fee (fixed, regardless of state)

Shunya charges a flat professional fee of ₹1,999 for company registration in Delhi, the same as anywhere else in India — whether you're registering a Private Limited Company, an LLP, or an OPC. This fee covers preparing your application, filing it with the MCA, and handling any queries the government raises. Government fees and stamp duty are always billed separately, so you can see exactly what portion goes to the government.

MCA government filing fee (national, not Delhi-specific)

The MCA's filing fee structure is set nationally and does not change based on which state your registered office is in. For a modest authorized capital, this fee is often minimal under current rules, and it can increase as your authorized capital rises. This part of the cost is identical whether you register in Delhi, Mumbai, or Bengaluru.

Delhi stamp duty — a relatively tight, reliable range

Stamp duty is where state-specific cost actually diverges. For a Private Limited Company in Delhi with ₹1 lakh authorized capital, stamp duty on the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association works out to approximately ₹350–₹360. Our cross-referenced sources land close to each other on this figure, which makes Delhi's range noticeably tighter and more reliable than some states where sources diverge much more widely. Even so, treat it as an approximate figure — your CA confirms the exact amount for your specific authorized capital before you pay anything beyond the professional fee.

For an LLP, Delhi stamp duty on the LLP agreement is 1% of your total contribution, capped at ₹5,000. So a modest-contribution LLP typically pays less stamp duty than a Pvt Ltd company, though the exact number still depends on your contribution amount.

No Professional Tax in Delhi

Unlike many other states that levy a Professional Tax on companies and employees as a recurring post-incorporation compliance item, Delhi (NCT) does not charge Professional Tax at all. This isn't part of the one-time registration cost, but it's a genuine, ongoing cost and compliance advantage worth factoring in if you're comparing Delhi against a state that does levy it.

A note on Delhi's RoC office

Delhi's RoC (Registrar of Companies) office structure was affected by a nationwide MCA restructuring in early 2026. We're not going to guess at exactly which office now handles your filing, because the details of that restructuring aren't fully settled in our sources yet. Your CA will confirm the exact filing office that applies to your registered office address before your incorporation documents go in — this has no bearing on your cost, only on which office processes your paperwork.

Cost by business structure in Delhi

Private Limited Company

The most common structure for startups and growing businesses in Delhi, offering limited liability and easier access to funding. Expect the ₹350–360 stamp duty range described above, on top of the professional fee and national MCA fee.

LLP

An LLP in Delhi generally works out lighter on stamp duty thanks to the 1%-capped-at-₹5,000 structure, making it a reasonable choice for professional services firms not planning to raise institutional funding.

One Person Company (OPC)

An OPC is registered by a single founder but is treated similarly to a Private Limited Company for incorporation purposes, so its Delhi cost profile is close to the Pvt Ltd figures above.

How Shunya prices Delhi company registration

Shunya keeps this simple and transparent, in Delhi and everywhere else:

1. Professional fee: a flat ₹1,999, regardless of structure or which part of Delhi your registered office is in.
2. Government fees and Delhi stamp duty: billed separately at actual cost, confirmed for your authorized capital before you pay.
3. No hidden charges added after you've already committed.

Turnaround is 7 to 10 working days for a standard incorporation. If it takes longer than 15 working days from the date you submit complete documents, Shunya waives the professional fee.
