Commencement of Business (INC-20A)

New company? You must file INC-20A within 180 days of incorporation before you can legally start business or borrow. We file it fast.

Overview

Every company with share capital must file a declaration of commencement of business in Form INC-20A within 180 days of incorporation, confirming that subscribers have paid their share capital. Until it’s filed, the company cannot legally commence business or exercise borrowing powers — and penalties apply for delay.

GovYapar files INC-20A with the required bank proof so your new company is legally cleared to operate.
