-   Company registration simplified but you need to do Home Work as CRC is hard to accept silly mistakes and forged signatures etc!!!Start your company by filing just one form-INC 32!! So, now, instead of filing separate e-forms for allotment of Director Identification Number, Name of Company and Incorporation of a company, start-ups can only file one single form-INC 32 to incorporate their company. Not only that, separate queue at the back office of the MCA would be present for the processing of INC 32. So, company incorporation in 48 hours actually seems possible in India as well!!
