If you use an iOS device then you know its a pretty complete system and works very
well. But, you may have had problems opening compressed zip files, so well talk today
about how to best handle zip files on your iPhone or iPad.
Apples iOS actually has had support, albeit limited, for zip files since iOS 7 but it only
works with Messages and Mail. For example, youre chatting with a friend and they
attach a zipped file full of their vacation pics. Or, a colleague at work emails you some
documents that they need you to look at right away.
Its not a perfect solution, but it works without necessitating any add-on software.
You can open the zipped file to view its contents. iOS does a pretty good job of
displaying text files, pdf, images, Word documents, and even Excel spreadsheets.
Viewing zip files in Messages or Mail is, however, only just that, viewing. If you want to
actually extract a file and edit it, youll need an appropriate helper application. You can
tap the Share button and pick the application you want to use.
Here, we have a spreadsheet, so we want to select Excel or some other application that
can handle .xls files.
Youre not limited solely to opening the file. You can also print it or Airdrop it to your
Mac or another iOS device.
As this method would imply, if you want to view zip files without ever visiting the App
Store, then youll have to e-mail archives to yourself and then open them with Mail. This
is a little impractical, which is why we recommend trying a traditional zip-handler app
like WinZip or iZip.
Obviously, youre not always going to encounter zip files in mail or instant messaging.
Sometimes, you have them stored on your cloud folder, or they could be stored locally,
or you might want to AirDrop one onto your iOS device. Regardless of the delivery
method, the options outlined above only work for attachments in Mail and Messages.
There are a couple of applications in the App Store, which are equipped to handle zip
files: iZip being one, and the venerable WinZip. Both are fairly similar in design and
function and both will handle local zip files for free. But, if you want more functionality
like unzipping, or plugging into your cloud folders, then youll have to pay for the full
programs. iZip Pro costs $3.99 while WinZip (Full Version) will set you back $4.99.
Regardless of the app you use, if you dont want to pay for the full versions, you will
need to first export your zip file to your iOS device and then use the free zip app to
handle the file.
In this example, when we use the free version of WinZip, we first select our zip file from
our cloud app first, then we click the Share button.
From the Share menu, well select Open in to show us a list of apps that can handle
this type of file.
Next, we choose our free zip app. In this case its WinZip but iZip will work just as well.
Our archive now open, we can view its contents such as we did when we were viewing
an attachment.
If we want to actually open a file, we need to again tap the Share icon and then
choose the appropriate app from the Open in menu selections.
If this is just too many steps, then you can purchase full versions of either zip app and
plug your cloud service right into it, among many other features. WinZip Full Version,
for example, has support for Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, and iCloud while iZip
Pro has support for iCloud, Dropbox, Box, and Google Drive.
If you want to know the differences between the free version of WinZip and WinZip Full
Version, here is a handy chart you can peruse. Similarly, heres a comparison between
iZip and iZip Pro. Note, iZip has a Pro version for iPhone that is $2.99, the iPad version
is a dollar more.
Heres our archive on our Dropbox. With the full version of WinZip we can access it
right from the application.
You have a few options from here. You can tap the arrow next to the zip file and send it
as a link, copy the link (and then paste it into a message), AirDrop it to another iOS
device or a Mac, or you can actually extract (unzip) the files contents.
If you unzip a file, you can unzip it in the parent folder or create a new folder.
Regardless of how you handle zip files, if you actually want to open their contents, you
will still need the correct app to handle it.
This isnt an issue for things like images and music files, but for stuff like documents,
presentations, and spreadsheets, you will probably need something like Microsoft
Office to handle them.
Using either the free or pay version of a zip app will also allow you to directly address
opening archives via AirDrop. When you AirDrop an archive from your Mac for
instance, youll see a list of choices for how you can handle it.
Choose your preferred zip app and youre good to go. You can then manage the
archives contents in any manner detailed above.
We hope this helps with clarifying how to open zip files on an iPhone or iPad.
Unfortunately, a perfect native iOS solution doesnt exist as of yet, however, even with a
free app you can access zipped contents with fairly little hassle. If you have any
questions, comments, or suggestions about dealing with zip archives on iOS devices,
please leave your feedback in our discussion forum.

DID YOU KNOW?
Despite the strong association of his name with shortness, Napoleon Bonaparte was actually taller
than average. Soldiers who ascended to the officer ranks in that time period tended to be more
physically gifted (i.e. taller) than their peers, so at 57 tall, Napoleon was shorter than most of his
immediate subordinates. However, among the general population of the time, he would have had
no trouble seeing over the crowd.

[Editors Note: The article is constantly updated to reflect new rules and processes.
We first wrote this article in 2009 and have been updating it on regular basis as and
when the processes have changed. In 2015, many new reforms have been
announced by the Government, and they have also come up with a unified INC-29
form, that reduces paperwork to a very large extent. We have taken help from folks
over at Vakilsearch to bring you the updated procedure. Here is the updated
process]
Company registration has forever been a major hassle for entrepreneurs looking to
set up their businesses in India. Its no wonder then that India has been ranked
142nd on the Ease of Doing Business Index and 158th on Ease of Starting a
Business. The newly introduced INC-29, a five-in-one form introduced by the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) in May 2015, will go a long way toward
improving this ranking.
The INC-29 doesnt replace the old procedure (at least not yet), but significantly
reduces interaction with the authorities through the clubbing of forms for DIN
allotment, name reservation, incorporation, PAN & TAN, as well as ESIC registration.
Do note, however, that while INC-29 does begin the PAN & TAN and ESIC registration
process, you are still required to submit supporting documents and information on
the MCAs e-biz (ebiz.gov.in) portal (so for now it not clear why PAN, TAN and ESIC
details are asked; perhaps the government plans to integrate these later).
The INC-29 form has tremendous ramifications on the registration process. If you
have registered a company prior to May 2015, you will immediately recognise how
much smoother this process can be. Here are the various steps involved:
Procedure 1:
Any one of the proposed directors must obtain a Class-II Digital Signature Certificate
(DSC) from an MCA-authorised agency to use the electronic filing system of the MCA
21. There are six vendors in all, including Tata Consultancy Services, e-Mudhra and
n-Code. The rates of each vendor differs vastly, from INR 400 to INR 2650. Charges
would include the cost of a physical USB token and the certificate itself.
It would take 2 to 5 days to complete this, mostly depending on how long it takes to
courier your documents to the vendor.
The applicant would need to submit the completed Class-II form, self-attested copy
of PAN card or, in case of foreign national, copy of Passport, and self-attested copy
of Voter ID/Ration Card/Drivers License/Latest Utilities Bill/AADHAR Card.
Procedure 2:
Preparing INC-29
As soon as you get your DSC, you can file INC-29, but dont assume that you will be
ready to do so. The INC-29 is an eight-page form requiring several pieces of
information and documents, some of which require a Company Secretarys
signature, to be submitted in one go. Also, in case of errors in your form,
resubmission is allowed only once, after which you will have to pay form filing fees
again and apply for a refund on the government fees youve paid. So please note
the documents you need to have in order to prepare the INC-29 and the
attachments.
Up to three directors can apply for the Director Information Number (DIN) through
INC-29; the rest, if any, may do so separately. The DIN is the number through which
the MCA identifies directors of companies. Obtaining a DIN involves the submission
of the following documents:
Scanned copy of PAN card (passport if foreign national) and Drivers License/Voter
ID/Latest Utilities Bill. Both should be self-attested, but foreign nationals would need
them notarised by the Indian embassy, too (if they belong to countries not in the
commonwealth, they would also need to be apostilled).
While the old process allowed you to submit six options for your company name, in
order of preference, the INC-29 only allows you to give one option. Understanding
the MCAs naming guidelines, therefore, is critical to ensuring your form is approved
on first attempt. Largely, you need to follow the following rules:
Ensure that your companys proposed name has not already been taken on
mca.gov.in.
Ensure that the first half of the name is unique. Avoid geographical references,
adjectives, abbreviations and generic terms. Also, the words bank, exchange and
stock exchange require approval from RBI and SEBI.
Ensure that the second half describes the sector youre in.
Once youve decided on a name, also describe the significance of the name in one
or two sentences. It would need to be entered into the form.
All companies must have a registered office address. This does not have to be a
commercial space. It can even be the home of a director. But the details need to be
provided, along with a copy of the Rental Agreement along with an NoC from the
owner (if rented property) and sale deed (if property is owned).
Procedure 3
Filing INC-29
If you have all the papers in order, you can now file the INC-29. Fill in the form and
attach all the required documents. Ensure that you havent missed anything out or
it will come in for resubmission. And if the Registrar finds an error in your form on
resubmission, too, the form will be rejected completely.
Once you file the form, you will be directed to pay the fees and stamp duty to a
payment gateway. The fees will change according to the authorised capital fee and
the stamp duty will vary according to your location. Stamp duty is similar in most
states, but costlier in Punjab and Kerala.
Lets take an example. For a company with a registered office in Mumbai and
authorised capital of Rs. 300,000, the fees would be as follows:
INC-29: 2000
Procedure 4:
While the government claims that it will issue the incorporation certificate within
two days, this is still to be tested. However, the filing of the single INC-29 form will
grant you the incorporation certificate, which is, in itself, a huge step forward.
Once you receive this certificate, you can follow the old steps listed below from
Procedure 6 (Make a Seal) onwards. Hopefully, the PAN & TAN and ESIC registrations
are also soon combined in the INC-29, as seems to be the plan. This would shorten
the procedure some more and move us further up the rankings on the Ease of Doing
Business Index.

[Editors Note: The entire procedure give below (written earlier) is still valid. Like
you read the first 5 procedures can now be carried out with Unified INC-29 form as
mentioned above. If you have any questions, please drop us a mail.]

Please bear in my mind that these are standard procedures and are applicable in
most cities in India, however, some in some cities there are some additional (or lack
of) processes that you will have to find out.
The steps given below are for incorporating a Business in the city of Mumbai.

Procedure 1.
Obtain director identification number (DIN) online from the Ministry of Corporate
Affairs portal (National)
1. Obtain the provisional DIN by filing application Form DIN-1 online. This form is on
the Ministry of Corporate Affairs 21st Century (MCA 21) portal. The provisional DIN is
immediately issued.
The application form must then be printed and signed and sent for approval to the
ministry by courier along with proof of identity and (address):
a. Identity proof (any of the following): Permanent Account Number card, drivers
license, passport, or voter card;
b. Residence proof (any of the following): drivers license, passport, voter card,
telephone bill, ration card, electricity bill, bank statement;
2. The concerned authority verifies all the documents and, upon approval, issues a
permanent DIN. The process takes about 4 weeks.
Procedure 2.
Obtain digital signature certificate online from private agency authorized by the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (National)
Procedure: To use the new electronic filing system under MCA 21, the applicant
must obtain a Class-II Digital Signature Certificate. The digital signature certificate
can be obtained from one of six private agencies authorized by MCA 21 such as Tata
Consultancy Services. Company directors submit the prescribed application form
along with proof of identity and address. Each agency has its own fee structure,
ranging from INR 400 to INR 2650.
Procedure 3.
Reserve the company name online with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) (National)
Procedure: Company name approval must be done electronically. Under e-filing for
name approval, the applicant can check the availability of the desired company
name on the MCA 21 web site.
The ROC in Mumbai has staff members working full time on name reservations
(approximately 3 but more if the demand increases). A maximum of 6 suggested
names may be submitted. They are then checked by ROC staff for any similarities
with all other names in India.
The MCA receives approximately 50-60 applications a day. After being cleared by
the junior officer, the name requests are sent to the senior officer for approval.
Once approved, the selected name appears on the website. Applicants need to keep
consulting the website to confirm that one of their submitted names was approved.
In practice, it takes 2 days for obtaining a clearance of the name if the proposed
name is available and conforms to the naming standards established by the
Company Act (1 day for submission of the name and 1 day for it to appear on the
MCA website).
Procedure 4.
Stamp the company documents at the State Treasury (State) or authorized bank
(Private)
Cost to complete: INR 1,300 (INR 200 for MOA + INR 1,000 for AOA for every INR
500,000 of share capital or part thereof + INR 100 for stamp paper for declaration
Form 1)
Once the memorandum and articles of association have been stamped, they must
be signed and dated by the company promoters, including the company name and
the description of its activities and purpose, father-s name, address, occupation,
and the number of shares subscribed. This information must be in the applicants
handwriting and duly witnessed.
Procedure 5.
Procedure: The following forms are required to be electronically filed on the website
of the Ministry of Company Affairs:
e-form 1; e-form 18; and e-form 32.
Along with these documents, scanned copies of the consent of the initial directors,
and also of the signed and stamped form of the Memorandum and Articles of
Association, must be attached to Form 1.
The fees for registering a company can be paid online by credit card or in cash at
certain authorized banks. One copy of the Memorandum of Association, Articles of
Association, Form 1, Form 32, Form 18 and the original name approval letter,
consent of directors and stamped power of attorney must be physically submitted to
the Registrar of Companies. The certificate of incorporation is sent automatically to
the registered office of the company by registered or rush mail.
The registration fees paid to the Registrar are scaled according to the companys
authorized capital (as stated in its memorandum):
a. INR 100,000 or less: INR 4,000. If the nominal share capital is over INR 100,000,
additional fees based the amount of nominal capital apply to the base registration
fee of INR 4,000:
b. For every INR 10,000 of nominal share capital or part of INR 10,000 after the first
INR 1,00,000, up to INR 500,000: INR 300;

INR 500,000, up to INR 5,000,000: INR 200;
d. For every INR 10,000 of nominal share capital or part of INR 10,000 after the first

e. For every INR 10,000 of nominal share capital or part of INR 10,000 after the first
INR 10,000,000: INR 50.
Schedule of Registrar filing fees for the articles and for the other forms (l, 18, and
32):
a. INR 200 for a company with authorized share capital of more than INR 100,000
but less than INR 500,000;
b. INR 300 for a company with nominal share capital of INR 500,000 or more but
less than INR 2,500,000;
c.INR 500 for a company with nominal share capital of INR 2,500,000 or more.
Procedure 6.
Cost to complete: INR 350 (cost depends on the number of seals required and the
time period for delivery)
Procedure: Although making a company seal is not a legal requirement for the
company to be incorporated, companies require a seal to issue share certificates
and other documents. The cost depends on the number of words to be engraved,
the number of seals required, and the time period for delivery. The cost can range
from INR 300 to INR 500.
Procedure 7.
Cost to complete: INR 67 (INR 60 application fee + 12.36% service tax + INR 5 for
application form, if not downloaded)
Procedure: Under the Income Tax Act, 1961, each person must quote his or her
Permanent Account Number (PAN) for tax payment purposes and the Tax Account
Number (TAN) for depositing tax deducted at source. The Central Board of Direct
Taxes (CBDT) has instructed banks not to accept any form for tax payment (challan)
without the PAN or TAN, as applicable. The PAN is a 10-digit alphanumeric number
issued on a laminated card by an assessing officer of the Income Tax Department.
In order to improve PAN-related services, the Income Tax department (effective July
2003) outsourced their operations pertaining to allotment of PAN and issuance of
PAN cards to UTI Investor Services Ltd, which was authorized to set up and manage
IT PAN Service Centers in all cities where there is an Income Tax office. The National
Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) has also launched PAN operations effective
June 2004, setting up TIN Facilitation Centers.
The PAN application is made through the above mentioned service centers using
Form 49A, with a certified copy of the certificate of registration, issued by the
Registrar of Companies, along with proof of company address and personal identity.
A fee of INR 60 (plus applicable taxes) applies for processing the PAN application. IT
PAN Service Centers or TIN Facilitation Centers will supply PAN application forms
(Form 49A), assist the applicant in filling out the form, collect filled-out forms, and
issue an acknowledgement slip. After obtaining PAN from the Income Tax
department, UTIISL or NSDL as the case may be, will print the PAN card and deliver
it to the applicant.
The application for PAN can also be made online but the documents still need to be
physically dropped off for verification with the authorized agent. For more details
see(www.incometaxindia.gov.in , www.utiisl.co.in , and www.tin.nsdl.co.in )
Procedure 8.
Obtain a Tax Account Number (TAN) for income taxes deducted at source from the
Assessing Office in the Mumbai Income Tax Department
Failure to apply for a TAN or to comply with any of the other provisions of the
section is subject to a penalty of INR 10,000/- . The application for allotment of a
TAN must be filed using Form 49B and submitted at any TIN Facilitation Center
authorized to receive e-TDS returns.
The national government levies the income tax. Since outsourcing, any authorized
franchise or agent appointed by the National Securities Depository Services Limited
(NSDL) can accept and process the TAN application. The application for a TAN can
be made either online through the NSDL website (www.tin-nsdl.com) or offline.
Upon payment of the fee by credit card, the hard copy of the application must be
physically filed with the NSDL.
Procedure 9.
Register with the Office of Inspector, Shops, and Establishment Act (State/Municipal)
Cost to complete: INR 6,500 (INR 2000 + 3 times registration fee for trade refuse
charges)
Procedure: A statement containing the employer-s and manager-s names and the
establishments name (if any), postal address, and category must be sent to the
local shop inspector with the applicable fees.
Hence in the given case the registration fees would be INR 2000, as there are 50
employees In addition, an annual fee (three times the registration and renewal fees)
is charged as trade refuse charges (TRC), under the Mumbai Municipal Corporation
Act,-(1888).
Procedure 10.
Register for Value-Added Tax (VAT) at the Commercial Tax Office (State)
Cost to complete: INR 5,100 (registration fee INR 5000 + stamp duty INR 100)
Procedure: Beginning April 1, 2005, the sales tax was replaced by the VAT, which
requires registration by filing Form 101.
The authorized representative signing the application must be available at the
Sales-Tax Office on the day of application verification. The applicant goes to the
Sales-Tax Office and up to the registration counter. The clerk at the counter verifies
that the applicant has all the required documents and gives the applicant a token
(waiting number). After a short wait, the applicant-s number is called and the
applicant approaches the desk of a sales-tax officer.
There, all the information on Form 101 is manually entered into the system by the
officer. Within 10 minutes, the system generates a Tax Identification Number (TIN)
Thereafter, the company is considered fully registered to pay taxes. However, the
applicant must wait between 10 and 15 days to receive the VAT registration
certificate by mail.
6) challan on Form No. 210 (original) showing payment of registration fee at INR
5000 (in case of voluntary RC) and INR 500 (in other cases).
The whole process will be put online by the spring of 2009. This means that rather
than physically having to go to the office, companies will fill in all their details online
for Form 101 and then go to the office only so that the Sales Tax Office can verify
the above listed-documentation.
Procedure 11.
Procedure: According to section 5 of the Profession Tax Act, every employer (not
being an officer of the government) is liable to taxation and shall obtain a certificate
of registration from the prescribed authority. The company is required to apply to
the registering authority using Form 1.
The registration authority for the Mumbai area is located at Vikarikar Bhavan,
Mazgaon in Mumbai.
Depending on the nature of the business, the application should be supported with
such documents as proof of address, details of company registration number under
the Indian Companies Act (1956), details of the head office (if the company is a
branch of company registered outside the state), company deed, certificates under
any other act, and so forth.
Procedure 12.
Procedure: The Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act (1952)
applies to an establishment, employing 20 or more persons and engaged in any of
the 183 industries and classes of business establishments, throughout India
excluding the State of Jammu and Kashmir.
The applicant fills in an application and is then allotted a social security number.
The Provident Fund registration focuses on delinquent reporting, underreporting, or
non-reporting of workforce size. Provident Fund registration is optional if the
workforce size is not more than 20. The employer is required to provide necessary
information to the concerned regional Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) in the
prescribed manner for allotment of Establishment Code Number. No separate
registration is required for the employees.
Nevertheless, all eligible employees are required to become members of the Fund
and individual account number is allotted by the employer in the prescribed
manner. As per an internal circular, the code number is to be allotted within 3 days
of submission, if the application is complete in all respects. However, in many cases
applicants have received the intimation letter with the code number in 12 to 15
days. An online application facility is not provided so far.
Procedure 13.
Register for medical insurance at the regional office of the Employees State
Insurance Corporation (National)
As per the Employees State Insurance (General), Form 01 must be submitted by the
employer for registration. It takes 3 days to a week for the Employer Code Number
to be issued. The- intimation letter- containing the Code Number is mailed to
the employer and that takes an additional couple of days.
The temporary cards are valid for 13 weeks from the date of the employees
appointment. It takes about 4 to 5 weeks to get a permanent ESI card.
We also did a series of posts about the legal information of doing business in India
in a 4 part series. Here are those articles that you may find extremely useful in your
quest to do business in India.

"Starting a Business in India - New Simple Step-by-Step Process [2016]", 5 out of 5
based on 1 ratings.
Starting A New Business? You Will Need Only 1 Form To Fill to Incorporate A New
Business

Dear All, Pl find the below mention brief on ENTRY OPTIONS FOR DOING BUSINESS

can undertake liaison activities on its Companys behalf. A liaison office can also
undertake: Representing parent/group Companies in India; Promoting
import/export in India; Promoting technical/financial collaborations on parent
company/groups behalf; Coordinating communications between parent/group
Companies and Indian Companies. 2) Branch office: Foreign Companies can conduct

There should not be problem. Since the services are to be used exclusively by
foreigners, even service tax may not be applicable if you get proper Foreign Inward
remittance Certificates from your banks and get the money in USD or other
convertible currency. But cant speak for UK laws. I dont think there should be an
issue though since it is legal business proposition. CA. Bhavesh Savla

Hi Renk, I am sharing with you a link for an article specially written for business set
up in India for NOn Residents and Foreign nationals.
http://trak.in/tags/business/2011/09/18/starting-business-india-nri-foreign-nationals/
From your post, I assume that you intend to first import from India to Australia as a
pilot project and then, if successful ,set up a manufacturing concern. If that is so, for
pilot project of importing , you may not need registrations as such. YOu can directly
deal with distributors/ manufacturers for some time and if you do find things
profitable, then you may go for registration. I hope you do find the article worth it. It
was written some time back and there have been few changes in the regulations
since then; most of them are beneficial for businesspersons. If you have any more
questions, you may drop an email to bhavesh@cabks.in. I shall be glad to help you.

Please note that Foreign Direct investment (FDI) is not allowed for multi brand retail
trade in India. Incorporation as well as regular periodical compliance of a corporate
entity with Foreigner stake in India may expensive for a foreigner. Also dissolution is
difficult in the unfortunate circumstance that a business may not work out. My
suggestion is that initially you can look out for a distributor (s) in India for your
goods. You may lose out on some profits but you can gain an idea about how a
business operates in India and what is the exact potential of your products in India.
Once you gain confidence, you can then venture out on your own. CA. Bhavesh

Reply
Hi Ranjan, TO open a computer Training institute, you will need a registration with
the service tax department if your total turnover crosses Rs. 10 lakhs in a year else
otherwise service tax registration is voluntary if the turnover is below Rs. 10 lakhs.
Further, as per local municipal or state law, you may require shop and
establishment for the Institute. If you decide to go for a proprietorship, you do not
need any specific registration as cuh. If you decide to go for a pvt ltd company or
LLP, you may require one more person as director/ shareholder. You can also go for
a One Person Company, a newly introduced concept under Companies Act where
you can form a pvt ltd company by only one shareholder/ Director. I hope the above
info is useful. If no just drop a mail at vinesh@vinning.co.in. You can visit our

Hello! Arun, It was very good and accurate information I was seeking for the

Website and graphic solutions and the business started in 2012 named as Kushal
Mangal Life Advisors which deals in Energy Healing, Life Coaching and Matrimonial
Services. I am seeking some finance which could stabilize the business by its
marketing. Will this registration could provide me some government grants? And
yes I have one Public Trust also named as Krishna Hari Foundation based on Medical
and Educational Agendas I want to establish one Yog School and Yog and Energy
Healing Centre. I have 10A, 12B, 80G registrations and its 7 years old with complete

provide more information about the business on which we can make investment on
coming years. Thanks in advance.

Well, As per my opinion, it wont require much days these days. As far as cost is
concerned, it always takes establishment cost at higher scale in any country not
only to India. Cost is and will be always there but simultaneously growth opportunity
in India and profits also are far higher. Do drop a mail for further discussions or

Arun, Thank you for the very helpful and detailed procedure. Im sure that, should I
form an Indian company, this information will be very helpful. My circumstances are
perhaps a bit unusual and I am not certain this is the way to go. Let me explain. I
currently purchase chemicals, both standard products and custom-made, which I
then market from the US to customers all over the world. In the current
circumstances, I have the goods shipped to me, we warehouse them in the US, and
then ship to our customers. Some of our customers take fairly large orders and the
shipping costs at both ends are significant. I have been considering creating an
Indian business that does the purchase locally, and then ships directly to my
customers. This way, the only name on the packages, documents, etc. would be
those of my company rather then my suppliers. The company the I would create
would have no staff other than myself and I would only be there occasionally. Does
this make sense and is it doable?

Hi Arun, Wish you Happy & Prosperous New Year. Many thanks for such detailed
information. Its just because of people like you, many people are able to find
necessary directions at such ease. I have couple of question as I wish to start e-
commerce business from India with its own distinct feature. Currently I am just on
drawing board and need to do lot of ground work. 1. If my business involves import
or export of goods what additional ground work needs to be completed. 2. For the
detailed information you have provided, are there any amendments with respect to
current regulations or procedures. 3. How can protect my business model against
big players. I may have limited capital and hence limited budget,resources. Its will
be easy for big players to copy my business model with heavy capital where I may
not get any chance to compete in longer run. Thanks for reading my comment and I
look forward to your response. Regards Prashant

Thanks of this great resource. I have a question and it would be great if anyone

selling some personal-use items (home made). If I were to get these items about a
dozen a time (through international post) and then sell them in India through a
website (as a distributor), would I be required to go through some legal formality to
do such a thing? Or can I just do this as an individual without requiring any kind of
formal setup? I want to do this on the side and it wont be my main livelihood.
Thanks in advance for anyone who answers!

The article is good, but I have some doubts, To start private company, what is the

overall how much expenses incur in starting company? Thanks.
Reply
Bhavesh says:
Dear Abhishek, The Rupees One lakh paid up capital denotes that you have to
deposit Rs. 1 lakh as Capital in the company. After the company is incorporated, you
have to open a bank account for the Company and then the shareholders have to
deposit the amount for the shares they have to be agrees to take up. The total shall
be at least Rs.1 lakh. In return, they get shares for the Company. Further, please
note that this money doesnt go anywhere but remains in the Companys custody. It
is neither locked up but can be used up for the business uses of the Company.
However, it cant be used for the personal uses of the owners or shareholders. CA.

Reply
I think the information, though procedurally correct, has many more things required.
For eg., not all are required to have ESIC/PF registrations. Neither, it is advisable to
have a VAT TIN at the outset. It is another matter that you can choose to register
voluntarily. However, the registrations can be done at a certain stage even after the
business starts. Would request Arun to clarify on those as well. Good compilations,
though! :)

Hi Sandeep. I was unable to get any information on the net about the E-commerce
Registration. Every website details different regisration rules for the same type of
startups. The closest I come to is getting Certificate of Incorporation from the
Registrar of Companies. But I believe it is a costly affair and certainly not inteneded
for startups with bare minimum funds. Perhaps someone can guide further. However
as I have done website domain registration for my website and know a little about
web design I can be of help to you if required. Gopal. (gopal.bengaluru@yahoo.com)

Dear Iftekhar Salaam I have read your text and have good intentions to help/set up
a business as per your objective. Yes! You can start a decent small interesting
business in Mumbai or even Pune. The business with a capital of 2 lakhs could be
surely possible a perfume business which will generate good capital revenue in
short time. I have a 18 years perfume background from middle east and have a very
good concept in hand to explore only with good people who are agressive in
business and looking for a bright future and grow with the growing business. You
can look at returns of 2 lakhs to 3lakhs in 3months time by all means. If you are
interested in a small business in perfumery glamerous industry, Please get in touch
with me. (2) the other option is to ba a franchise of my fast food joint name as
Hotspot we are making and selling Pizza, Veg and Non veg Burgers, Hotdogs,

A great small business always starts out as an idea, but you have to
transform that idea into action. Thats where many individuals can
start to feel overwhelmed. Its understandable to freeze up at the
deluge of things that are required to get a business started, but getting
going is actually easier than you might think.
Like any big goal, if you start by breaking it down into smaller tasks,
youll be able to tackle enough of the actions necessary to get
started. Here are six ways to break down the process and simplify
getting started with your own small business.
So to get started, create your own simple, one-page business plan that
is a high-level overview of the small business youre about to start.
Thats it. It might be longer than one page, but it will surely be more
organized and shorter than a full business plan, which could take
weeks to write. If you need more information on the one-page business
plan, or want to write out a full-blown finance-centered business plan,
you can check out the book I co-wrote with my brother that has a
robust explanation of both, Small Business, Big Vision: Lessons on How
to Dominate Your Market From Self-Made Entrepreneurs Who did it
Right.
2. Decide on a budget.
While I highly recommend you keep your costs as low as possible,
youll still need to determine a budget to get started and how much
youll be able to spend. If youre self funding, be realistic about
numbers and whatever you anticipate your budget to be. Ive found
that an additional 20 percent tacked on for incidentals is a realistic
overage amount that helps you plan your burn rate.
Your burn rate is how much cash youre spending month over month.
Its an important number for you to figure out to determine how long
you can stay in business before you need to turn a profit.
You should set up your business with profitability in mind the first 30 to
90 days. Its possible. But have a budget reserve so you can survive if
things go leaner than expected.
Often in the initial test phase for your small business, it can be wise
to start as a sole proprietor, as it means less paperwork and up-front
expenses. That can save you some big-time cash while you determine
the viability of your business. Do be aware though that acting as a sole
proprietor can put you at personal risk, so youll want to weigh the
benefits vs. risks and then speak with a local attorney or tax
professional to decide which is smarter for your short-term vs. long-
term goals.
You can always file for a business entity once youve proven in the first
three to six months of business that youve got a viable, sustainable
model.
Dont pay for an account or get any kind of credit lines yet, just get a
holding place you can keep your money separated from your personal
accounts. This should take you no more than hour at the financial
institution of your choice.
6. Test sales.
You have enough of a foundation now that you can start testing some
sales. Try to spread the word in inexpensive and creative ways.
Drive traffic to your website through simple Facebook Ads with capped
budgets, or set up a simple Google AdWords account with a budget cap
to test if traffic is going to your site.
You can follow these six steps by yourself for not a lot of money. Its a
fantastic way to test the viability of your small business before
throwing all your time and money into an unproven idea.
