Section 8 Company Registration (NGO/NPO) – Nyay Sarthi India Filings
A Section 8 Company is a recognized form of non-profit organization in India, incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013. Much like a trust or society, its principal aim is to promote charitable activities such as education, social welfare, art, culture, science, religion, and other causes that contribute to the overall development and upliftment of society. These companies are established by individuals or groups with a mission—not a motive for profit.
Registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), a Section 8 company is authorized to operate throughout India for charitable purposes.
At Nyay Sarthi India Filings, we provide end-to-end support for registering Section 8 companies, as well as for setting up other entities like private limited and public limited companies.
Our dedicated team of legal and corporate professionals ensures a streamlined registration process by managing all statutory and procedural requirements efficiently. From document preparation to final approval, we offer expert assistance every step of the way.

Section 8 Company Registration – Step-by-Step Process
Powered by Nyay Sarthi India Filings
A Section 8 Company is a registered non-profit organization in India, committed to promoting social welfare and national development. At Nyay Sarthi India Filings, we simplify the entire registration process to help you legally establish your NGO with ease and confidence.
Step 1: Obtain Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)
The process begins with acquiring a Digital Signature Certificate for all proposed directors. DSC is essential for digitally signing documents submitted to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).
Required Details:
Email ID and Mobile Number
PAN Card
Aadhaar Card
Step 2: Apply for Name Approval
Section 8 companies must select a name that reflects their non-profit nature. Names should include terms such as Society, Foundation, Council, Association, Club, Academy, Charities, Federation, Organization, Chamber of Commerce, Institute, or Development.
Step 3: Documentation Preparation
Once the name is approved and DSCs are in place, our team prepares all essential documents, including:
Director and shareholder declarations
Drafted Memorandum of Association (MoA) and Articles of Association (AoA)
Subscription sheets and other supporting forms
Step 4: Apply for Section 8 License (Form INC-12)
We then submit an application to the Regional Director of MCA to obtain the Section 8 License. The authority evaluates your objectives and activities, and typically grants the license within 15 working days.
Step 5: File Incorporation Forms with ROC
After securing the license, incorporation forms are filed with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) through the MCA portal. Once verified, the ROC issues the Certificate of Incorporation along with a Company Identification Number (CIN).
Step 6: Finalize MoA and AoA
Post-approval, we finalize the Memorandum of Association (MoA)—which defines the objectives—and the Articles of Association (AoA)—which outlines the governance rules and internal regulations.
Step 7: Apply for PAN, TAN, and Open a Bank Account
To ensure smooth operations post-incorporation, we assist in applying for the company’s PAN and TAN, and support you in opening a dedicated bank account.

Why Register an NGO Under Section 8?
Key Benefits of Section 8 Company Registration – Nyay Sarthi India Filings
Registering an NGO or NPO under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013 offers numerous advantages, making it one of the most credible and efficient legal structures for charitable organizations in India. Here’s why you should consider it:
Section 8 Companies enjoy multiple tax exemptions under the Income Tax Act. Additionally, once registered under Section 12A and 80G, they can offer tax deductions to donors, encouraging more contributions.
Unlike private limited companies, there is no mandatory minimum capital required to incorporate a Section 8 Company. The company can be formed with any amount of capital, based on operational needs.
A Section 8 Company is a separate legal entity from its members. It can own property, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in its own name, offering a structured and professional image.
One of the financial advantages is that stamp duty is not applicable on the MoA and AoA, which is otherwise required for private limited or public limited companies—making it more cost-effective.
If the organization obtains 80G certification, all donations made to the NGO become eligible for tax exemption, encouraging more individuals and corporations to support your cause.
Section 8 Companies are considered more credible than other forms of NGOs like trusts or societies. This is due to their strict regulatory compliance under the Companies Act, including mandatory annual audits, ensuring greater transparency and accountability.
Nyay Sarthi India Filings helps you unlock these benefits with our expert guidance and hassle-free registration services. Choose the structure that brings trust, compliance, and long-term sustainability to your non-profit mission.
