Architect your legal foundation
with absolute precision.
Explore our expert-led services, compare entity structures, or estimate state-wise statutory incorporation costs across 28 Indian states.
Name Registration
Verify availability and register your desired company name instantly with the MCA. We ensure your brand identity is protected from day one.
Private Limited Company Registration
Fast, expert-assisted company registration in 7-15 days. Get your Certificate of Incorporation, DIN, DSC, PAN, and TAN with zero hassle.
Limited Liability Partnership Registration
The preferred structure for professional services, consulting, and tech firms. Combines operational flexibility of a partnership with the corporate protection of limited liability — at a fraction of the compliance cost of a Pvt Ltd.
One Person Company Registration
The OPC is India's most powerful structure for solo entrepreneurs. You get the complete corporate shield of a Private Limited company — limited liability, separate legal identity, and institutional credibility — while maintaining 100% ownership and decision-making authority as the sole director and shareholder.
Bank Opening
Your company is incorporated. The next immediate need is a business bank account to accept investor wires, receive client payments, and meet GST filing requirements. We integrate bank account opening directly into the incorporation process via AGILE-PRO-S — eliminating weeks of paperwork and branch visits.
DPIIT Certification
DPIIT Recognition is not just a badge — it is a legal gateway to an 80% reduction in patent fees, a 3-year income tax holiday under Section 80-IAC, exemption from Angel Tax under Section 56(2)(viib), and eligibility to bid in government tenders reserved exclusively for Startup India entities.
GST Filing & Taxation
A single missed GSTR filing generates a cascade of late fees, interest accruals, blocked ITC claims, and potential suspension of your GSTIN — paralyzing your ability to invoice clients and claim refunds. Our managed GST compliance service ensures every return is filed accurately, on time, every month.
Essential Startup Approach
Every great startup begins with the right legal fundamentals. Founding Legals brings co-founder vesting, clean cap table tracking, corporate governance, and statutory filings into one clear, connected approach — so you never have to scramble when investors run due diligence.
Client Management
Early-stage founders shouldn't have to juggle scattered client emails, unorganized contracts, and manual payment tracking. Founding Legals gives you a clean workspace to onboard clients, link legally binding agreements, generate professional GST invoices, and keep your cash flow predictable.
Team Management
Growing your founding team is exciting; navigating offer letters, employment contracts, and IP protection shouldn't slow you down. Founding Legals streamlines employee onboarding, contractor agreements, role records, and policy documentation in one clean founder workspace.
Spend Analysis
Every rupee matters when building an early-stage startup. Founding Legals gives founders crystal-clear visibility into company disbursements, highlights recurring software licenses, and accurately models your runway horizon before cash crunches occur.
IP Protection
In the eyes of institutional investors, unprotected intellectual property is a valuation killer. VCs and acquirers run IP searches on Day 1 of due diligence. An unregistered trademark, an unprotected codebase, or a disputed patent can kill a deal mid-negotiation. We help you build an IP moat that survives the most rigorous audit.
Document Management
Your company's founding documents, investor agreements, and tax receipts should never live across scattered WhatsApp chats and personal Google Drives. Founding Legals gives your startup an encrypted, organized vault built specifically for Indian corporate compliance.
Legal Agreements
Understand, draft, and manage the essential legal agreements your startup needs to protect intellectual property, onboard employees, secure capital, and scale commercially. Access state-specific stamp duty guidelines and pre-vetted legal templates.
Pitch to Investors
The average VC spends 3 minutes and 44 seconds on a pitch deck. In that window, your slides must communicate market size, business model, traction, and team credibility with absolute clarity. We give you the battle-tested frameworks, financial models, and narrative structures used by startups that have collectively raised over ₹500 Crore.
Raise Before a Round
When an angel investor says 'I'm in,' you have a 72-hour window before their conviction fades. Traditional equity rounds take 2–3 months to close. SAFEs and CCPS let you receive capital in days by deferring the valuation conversation to your next priced round — keeping momentum without diluting your cap table prematurely.
Do a Funding Round
A priced equity round involves a minimum of 12 legal documents, 4 board resolutions, 2 EGM filings, 1 ROC allotment form, and coordination between your lawyers, the investor's lawyers, and the company secretarial team. One error in a SHA clause or a missed PAS-3 deadline can freeze your round mid-close. We run the entire process so you can focus on closing.
Finance for Fundraising
Institutional investors run three parallel tracks during due diligence: legal, technical, and financial. The financial track is the most common deal-killer. Restated financials, missing GST returns, incorrect TDS compliance, inflated revenue recognition, or an invalid valuation report can trigger a repricing demand, a delayed closing, or a full deal withdrawal.
Legal Advice for a Round
VCs negotiate term sheets every week. Most first-time founders see their first term sheet on the day it arrives. The power asymmetry is enormous. A single aggressive clause — a 2x participating liquidation preference, a full-ratchet anti-dilution, or a drag-along without a carve-out — can hand institutional investors control of your exit at the exact moment you should be celebrating.
Instant Investment
Investor conviction has a half-life. The longer the gap between 'I'm interested' and signed documents, the greater the chance of a change of heart, a competing deal, or a market shift. Instant Investment compresses the entire investment closing process into a single business day — from document generation to e-signature to share allotment notification.
Payroll Management
Paying your team on time and staying compliant shouldn't mean wrestling with complex enterprise software or error-prone spreadsheets. Founding Legals simplifies salary structures, statutory tax calculations, digital payslips, and payroll records in one stress-free monthly workflow.
Schemes & Grants
Billions in state and central government grant capital go unclaimed every year. Founding Legals curates active non-dilutive funding programs, SISFS grants, state startup policies, and incubation subsidies tailored to your entity type and industry sector.
Investor Directory
Fundraising begins with finding investors who actually back companies at your stage and in your sector. Founding Legals gives you access to a curated directory of over 3,000 verified angel investors, syndicates, family offices, and venture capital funds actively investing in Indian startups.
Marketplace
Building a startup shouldn't require paying full retail price for essential software or risking your business on unvetted service providers. Founding Legals Marketplace unlocks curated cloud credits, SaaS discounts, and pre-negotiated partner services.
