Company Registration Cost in Manipur

What company registration costs in Manipur — the four components

Founders registering in Manipur should expect their total bill to be made up of four 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 Manipur 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 Manipur

The MCA's filing fee structure is the same across India, so this component does not change because you are registering in Manipur 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 Imphal or anywhere else in the country.

Manipur stamp duty — low and comparatively simple

This is the part that is genuinely specific to Manipur, and the good news for founders here is that it is one of the lower stamp duty states in India. Manipur charges a flat stamp duty on incorporation documents rather than a percentage of your authorized capital: ₹100 flat on the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and ₹150 flat on the Articles of Association (AOA) for a Private Limited Company, which together work out to around ₹260. Treat this figure as approximate — stamp duty rules can be updated by the state government, so your CA confirms the exact amount for your specific incorporation during your free consultation call, before you pay anything beyond the professional fee.

For an LLP, Manipur stamp duty on the LLP agreement works out to approximately ₹100, again confirmed exactly on your consultation call.

Manipur Professional Tax

Manipur 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 does not apply uniformly across every Indian state.

Why your company registration is processed by ROC Shillong

Manipur does not have its own dedicated Registrar of Companies (RoC) office. Instead, company incorporations in Manipur are processed by ROC Shillong, a single regional office that serves several Northeast Indian states together rather than each state having its own RoC. This is simply an administrative arrangement — it does not change your stamp duty, your MCA fees, or your professional fee, all of which are determined the same way regardless of which RoC office processes your filing.

In practical terms, this means your incorporation paperwork is reviewed and approved out of Shillong rather than a local Manipur office, but the process, documents, and turnaround you experience as a founder stay the same.

How Shunya prices company registration in Manipur

Shunya keeps this simple and transparent, whether your registered office is in Imphal or anywhere else in Manipur:

1. Professional fee: a flat ₹1,999, regardless of whether you are registering a Private Limited Company, LLP, or OPC.
2. Government fees and Manipur stamp duty: billed separately at actual cost, confirmed exactly for your specific structure before you pay.
3. No hidden charges added after you have 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.
