The certificate of incorporation starts several statutory clocks. Miss them and your brand-new company begins life with defaults on record.
Immediately
- Open the company bank account; shareholders deposit subscription money
- Order the statutory registers and minute books (or set up their digital equivalents)
Within the first month
- First board meeting within the statutory window — appointing the first auditor is its headline item
- Registered office confirmations and display requirements
Within the first two months
- Business commencement declaration after subscription money arrives, within its deadline — banks and filings depend on it
- Share certificates issued to subscribers within the prescribed period, duly stamped
As applicable, early
- GST registration when thresholds or business model require
- Professional tax, shop & establishment, Udyam registration
- TDS deduction setup if salaries or vendor payments begin
The pattern
None of these is difficult; all of them are dated. A one-page calendar in week one prevents the whole category of “we didn’t know” penalties.
Every incorporation we deliver ships with this calendar done — registration service · ongoing compliance.
