Company Registration Cost in Uttar Pradesh
Registering a company in Uttar Pradesh costs roughly the same as anywhere else in India, with one notable state-specific advantage. You are looking at Shunya's flat ₹1,999 professional fee, MCA government filing fees (the same national slabs everywhere), and Uttar Pradesh's stamp duty, which runs a moderate, flat structure of around ₹1,010 for a Pvt Ltd company. Uttar Pradesh also does not levy Professional Tax, which lowers your ongoing compliance cost compared to states that do. Treat every figure here as an approximate range — your CA confirms the exact numbers for your specific registered office during your free consultation.
What company registration costs in Uttar Pradesh — the components
Every company registration bill breaks into the same three or four parts, no matter which city in the state your registered office is in. Here is how each looks specifically for Uttar Pradesh.
Professional fee — fixed, does not change for Uttar Pradesh
Shunya charges a flat professional fee of ₹1,999 for company registration in Uttar Pradesh, exactly the same as in every other state. This covers preparing your application, filing it with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), and handling any queries the government raises. This is the one number on this page that is fixed and confirmed — it does not shift based on your state, your city, or your business structure.
Government filing fees (MCA) — national, not state-specific
MCA filing fees follow the same national slabs regardless of which state you register in. For a modest authorized capital, this fee is often minimal or waived under current government rules, and it is billed separately from Shunya's professional fee so you always know exactly what is going to the government.
Uttar Pradesh stamp duty — a moderate, flat structure
Stamp duty is charged by the state government on your incorporation documents — the Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA) for a Pvt Ltd company, or the LLP agreement for an LLP. Based on the sources we have cross-referenced, Uttar Pradesh applies a flat structure: around ₹500 for the MOA and around ₹500 for the AOA, working out to roughly ₹1,010 in total for a Pvt Ltd company at a typical ₹1 lakh authorized capital. For an LLP, stamp duty works out to approximately ₹750. These are approximate figures — your CA confirms the exact stamp duty for your registered office address before you pay anything beyond the professional fee.
No Professional Tax in Uttar Pradesh — a real cost advantage
Unlike several other states, Uttar Pradesh does not levy Professional Tax on directors, employees, or businesses. This is not a one-time incorporation saving but an ongoing one — it means one less recurring compliance line item for your company every year compared to registering in a state that does charge Professional Tax.
A note on RoC filing in Uttar Pradesh
Uttar Pradesh's Registrar of Companies (RoC) filing is split by region rather than handled from a single office for the whole state, with Kanpur being one of the offices involved. Which specific RoC office your filing goes to depends on where your registered office address is located. Rather than guess at a split we could not fully verify, we would rather tell you plainly: your CA will confirm the exact RoC office that applies to your registration during your consultation, so there is no ambiguity before you file.

Private Limited Company
A Private Limited Company is the most common structure for startups and growing businesses in Uttar Pradesh, since it offers limited liability and is the easiest structure to raise funding into. Expect the stamp duty component to be around ₹1,010, since both the MOA and AOA need to be stamped.
LLP
An LLP generally works out cheaper in Uttar Pradesh, with stamp duty of approximately ₹750 against the Pvt Ltd company's roughly ₹1,010, since the LLP agreement is a single, simpler document. Combined with the absence of Professional Tax, an LLP in Uttar Pradesh can be a genuinely low-cost structure for professional services firms and businesses that do not plan to raise institutional funding.
