How this estimate is built
Incorporating a Private Limited Company or OPC in India isn't a single fee — it's four separate costs stacked together. This calculator adds them up so you can see the full picture in one place, instead of discovering each cost one at a time.
| Component | How it's determined |
|---|---|
| Shunya's professional fee | Flat ₹1,999, regardless of state, capital, or number of directors |
| MCA government fee | ₹0 up to ₹15 lakh authorized capital; slab-based above that — confirmed during consultation |
| State stamp duty | Set by each state government under its own Stamp Act — varies widely, and scales with capital in most states |
| DSC (Digital Signature Certificate) | ₹800–₹2,500 per director, paid to a government-licensed certifying authority, 2-year validity |
What's included
- Shunya's fixed professional fee for handling your Pvt Ltd / OPC incorporation filing
- The MCA government incorporation fee (waived entirely up to ₹15 lakh authorized capital)
- State stamp duty on your MoA/AoA, using each state's reference figure at ₹1 lakh authorized capital
- DSC cost for your directors, shown as the standard market range
What's not included
- GST registration — priced separately, confirm with Shunya
- Trademark filing — priced separately, confirm with Shunya
- Ongoing annual compliance and ROC filing costs (see the ROC Fee Calculator)
- Notarization or courier costs some states/registrars charge incidentally

This estimate covers four components: Shunya's flat ₹1,999 professional fee, the MCA government incorporation fee (waived up to ₹15 lakh authorized capital), state stamp duty on your MoA/AoA (varies by state), and Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) cost for your directors (₹800–₹2,500 per director). It does not include GST registration, trademark filing, or ongoing compliance costs — those are priced separately.
Why does stamp duty vary by state?
Stamp duty is levied by each state government individually under its own Stamp Act, not by the central government, so rates and structures differ significantly from state to state — some states charge a flat fee, others scale with authorized capital, and a few states like Sikkim charge none at all. That's why this calculator asks you to select your state specifically.
Is DSC cost included in Shunya's ₹1,999 fee?
No. Shunya's ₹1,999 fee covers professional service for your incorporation filing. DSC is a separate cost paid to a government-licensed certifying authority, typically ₹800–₹2,500 per director for a 2-year validity certificate — required for every director to digitally sign incorporation documents.
How accurate is this estimate?
This is a starting-point estimate built from Shunya's fixed fee and standard reference figures for MCA fees, stamp duty, and DSC costs. Your exact figure — especially for stamp duty in some states and MCA fees above ₹15 lakh capital — is confirmed by your CA during your free consultation, since these numbers can vary or change with government notifications.
This tool is for quick estimation only and is not a substitute for professional advice. State stamp duty figures are approximate reference points and can change with government notifications — confirm your exact cost with a practicing CA before you file.
