What is Registering a Company in India from Singapore? 

Registering a company in India from Singapore means setting up a legally recognized Private Limited Company in India without physically traveling. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) allows Singapore citizens and businesses to incorporate an Indian company with digital documents and e-signatures. Foreign nationals from Singapore can hold up to 100 percent shareholding in most permitted sectors, which gives complete control over the Indian business. The only requirement is to appoint one Indian resident director, who acts as a local compliance point as per section 149 of the Companies Act.

This registration allows Singapore founders to tap into India’s fast-growing market, sell products or services locally, hire talent, open Indian bank accounts, and participate in the Indian startup ecosystem. Once incorporated, the company receives its Certificate of Incorporation, PAN, TAN, GST (if required), and bank account setup, making it fully operational. The entire filing process is completed online through MCA’s SPICe+ system, which includes applying for name approval, preparing charter documents (MOA, AOA), adding directors, issuing share capital, and submitting all compliance declarations in a single digital workflow.

With Ebizfiling, Singapore entrepreneurs get end-to-end assistance including document preparation, foreign document apostille guidance, SPICe+ form filing, verification, MCA approvals, and post-registration compliance support such as ROC filings and GST registration.
