1 Starting a Business Questionnaire India (Mumbai) Dear Contributor, We would like to thank you for your participation in the Doing Business project. Your expertise in the area of Starting a Business in India is essential to the success of the Doing Business report, one of the flagship publications of the World Bank Group that benchmarks business regulations in 190 economies worldwide. The Starting a Business indicator, which measures the number of procedures, time, cost and paid-in minimum capital requirement for a small and medium-size limited liability company to start up and formally operate, is one of the 11 indicator sets published by the Doing Business report. The report attracts much attention around the world. The latest edition, Doing Business 2017: Equal Opportunity for All, introduced improvements in the paying taxes and protecting minority investors indicators, and included a gender component in 3 of 11 Doing Business indicator sets. It received over 7,000 media citations within just a week of its publication on October 25, 2016 and the report was downloaded almost 40,000 times within that same period. A record 137 economies implemented a total of 283 reforms. Low and middle income countries carried out more than 75% of these reforms, with Sub-Saharan Africa accounting for 80 of them. Governments worldwide read the report with interest every year, and your contribution makes it possible for the Doing Business project to disseminate the regulatory best practices that continue to inspire their regulatory reform efforts. Since 2004, more than 170 economies have implemented more than 580 reforms making it easier to start a business. In 2015/16, 49 economies implemented such reforms. For Starting a Business, most focused on simplifying pre-registration and registration formalities.

4 2.Reform Update When answering the questions below, please use the case study assumptions provided in section Has there been any reform (in practice or in laws and regulations) related to the process of starting a business SINCE June 1, 2016? If applicable, please indicate the name and date of the law and provide an online link to the legal text: Response If yes, has this reform simplified or complicated the process of starting a business? Please explain: The following reforms have introuced significant efficiencies of time in the process of Starting a Business. 1. REDUCTION OF APPLICABE PROCEDURES FROM 14 to 5: The applicable number of procedures have been reduced from 14 to 5 with the introduction of the "Simplified Proforma for Incorporating a Company electronically" (SPICe aka INC 32). SPICe is the only default application for incorporation of companies. The "mandatory" SPICe form combines 5 procedures across agencies (MCA and CBDT) to 1 procedure. Listed below are the erstwhile procedures which have now been subsumed as 1 procedure: (a) Incorporation of company (b) Obtain director identification number (DIN) (c) Reservation of company name (d) Application for Permanent Account Number (PAN) (e) Application for Tax deduction and collection Account Number (TAN) 2. REDUCED APPLICATION FEE FOR INCORPORATION: Application Fee for incorporation of company has been reduced from INR 2,000/- to to INR 500/- 3. ONLINE AND REALTIME APPLICATION PROCESS FOR ESIC & EPFO WITHOUT THE REQUIREMENT OF INSPECTION OR PHYSICAL TOUCH POINTS: Procedures associated with Employee State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) and Employee Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) have been made electronic and are now provided in real time. Inspection procedures associated with both procedures have been dispensed with. 4. ONLINE AND REAL TIME REGISTRATION UNDER SHOPS & ESTABLISHMENT's ACT IN MUMBAI: Applications are processed electronically inspection procedures have been dispensed with. There are a total of 1538 approvals were given in one day out of total 1673 application received in January, ESTABLISHMENT OF CENTRAL REGISTRATION CENTRE (CRC): MCA rolled out the first phase of CRC in January, THE CRC is process re-engineering initiative which utilises a combination of automation, rationalization of rules, deployment of certified professionals and centralized processing to reduce time taken to incorporate a new company. Resultantly, the time taken to incorporate a company has been brought down to an average of 0.3 days in December, In Mumbai, the procedures for VAT registration and Profession Tax have been clubbed into 1 consolidated procedure which one may apply online. There are a total of approvals were given in one day out of total application received in January, 2017
5 2.2 Are you aware of any reform (in practice or in laws and regulations) related to the process of starting a business that is expected to be adopted PRIOR TO June 1 7. The following CORRECTIONS are to be made: 7.1 DIGITAL SIGNATURE CERTIFICATE (DSC): DSC's are counted as a procedure in the past year's ranking procedure, however the requirement of DSC is not specific to Incorporation of a Company and is in fact a necessary aspect of validating electronic transactions world-wide. In the event an applicant has an existing DSC, he is free to utilise the same for Incorporation of a Company and will not be required to apply for a DSC. 7.2 COMMON / CORPORATE SEAL: The requirement of Common / Corporate seal was dispensed with in the Companies (Amendment) Act, 2015, yet it has been considered in last years' Doing Business Report. 7.3 BANK ACCOUNT: Bank accounts are not required "mandatorily" for any forms during the procedures associated with starting a business and hence are incorrectly counted as a "procedure". Only ESIC registration used to require bank account details previously, however, the practice was discontinued in April, The provision of bank account information has been made optional at the time of registration since then. 8. The procedures and timelines for starting a Business is as follows: 1. Incorporate a company with Name Reservation, DIN, PAN and TAN using SPICe Form online-0.5 day The cost of the procedure is as follows: Filing of Memorandum of Association: INR 2,000 Filing fee for Articles of Association: INR 400 Filing fee for integrated INC-32 (SPICe): INR 500 Stamp Duty: INR 10 Stamp Duty for Articles of Association: INR 200 Stamp Duty for Memorandum of Association: INR 750, 2017?
6 (The process for drafting Memorandum and Articles of Association has been simplified with the introduction of emoa and eaoa.) 2. Register with ESIC-0.5 Day (Simultaneous Process)-No Charge 3. Register with EPFO-0.5 Day (Simultaneous Process)-No Charge 4. Register with VAT and Profession Tax; online and real time-0.5 Day-the cost is INR Register with Shops and Establishment Act (online and real time)-0.5 Day (Simultaneous Process)-INR 4800 The procedures which are completely eliminated are: Procedure-1: Obtain a digital signature-the requirement of obtaining digital signature is not specific to registration of companies and a person may have digital signature readily available for a variety of online transactions. Hence, to count it as an additional procedure may reflect an incorrect stance. Evidently, this would not count as a procedure in case an individual is in possession of a digital signature. Further it takes only four hours to get the digital signature in India from Certifying Authorities. The cost of obtaining a digital signature is INR 899. Procedure-5: Make a company stamp- The companies Act has already amended and removed the requirement of company seal in ESIC and PAN do not any longer require corporate seals. India's central bank and monetary authority, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued an advisory to the Indian Banks Association (IBA) to educate banks that corporate / common seal is not mandated by law for opening of a bank account, unless the company's Memorandum and Articles of Association specify the same. Accordingly, banks do not insist on obtaining company seal at the time of opening accounts of the company. Procedure-7: Open a bank Account-Opening of a bank account is not a "mandatory" requirement at the time of filing of an application for incorporation. Accordingly, to treat opening of a bank account as a separate procedure, despite the fact that it is not required for incorporation would reflect an incorrect position both de jure and de facto. The absence of a bank account would not stop the process of starting a business / incorporation of a company. Any company would require a bank account to make monetary transactions whether the transaction be with the government, or otherwise, in any country of the world.
7 Procedure-13: Receive inspection and obtain the shops and Establishment Registration certificate- Municipal Corporation of greater Mumbai has removed the requirement of inspection. Procedure-14 Registration for Profession Tax: This procedure is merged with VAT registration using an integrated online common application form. 9. The total cost of incorporting a compoany stands at INR 3860, which is reduced from DBR, 2017 figure of INR The total cost for starting a business in India Company incorporation-inr 3860 Digital Signature- INR 899 DIN for 2 directors-inr 1000 PAN-INR 107 TAN-INR 63 VAT-500 Registration under Shops and Establishment- INR 4800 The total is INR ( USD 165) which is around 10% of income per capita ( USD 1590).

Please explain: The registration for ESIC and EPFO will be done through a common application form. 2.3 Are you aware of any reform (in practice or in laws and regulations) related to the process of starting a business that is ongoing and is expected to be adopted AFTER June 1, 2017?

9 3.The Business Start-up Process For your convenience, last year s aggregate answers are included in this survey. They represent a unified answer based on the answers we received from various contributors. Thus, they may not match the specific answers that you or your colleagues provided last year. If you feel that the unified answers do not reflect the current reality in your economy, kindly provide us with your own answers and a clear indication of the reasons for your different views. Please describe in detail any change to the data and indicate when the change took effect. Please specify the reason why you think the data for this year should be different: (i) Correction: our unified answer is wrong and does not reflect the current practice in your economy; (ii) Reform: the different answer resulted from a modification of practice or law after June 1, 2016; (iii) Other: please specify. Definitions A procedure is any interaction of the company founder with external parties, for example, government agencies, lawyers, auditors or notaries. Interactions between company founders or between company officers and their employees are not considered separate procedures. Both pre- and post-incorporation procedures that are required for an entrepreneur to legally operate a business (including procedures required after the company incorporation) are recorded. If female entrepreneurs have to comply with additional requirements compared to male entrepreneurs, such additional requirements are included in the list of procedures and are marked as "applies to women only". Time is recorded in calendar days, not working days. The time span for each procedure starts with the first filing of the application or request and ends once the company has received the final document, such as the company registration certificate or tax number (for example, it includes the time to make an appointment with a notary or any waiting time once the documents are filed). It is assumed that the entrepreneur has had no prior contact with any of the officials. Procedures that can be fully completed online and in less that 1 day are counted as half a day. Costs include only official fees and taxes. Bribes are excluded. If possible, please indicate the relevant fee schedule or calculation formula (for example, as a percentage of the company s capital). Fees for professional services (such as those of notaries, lawyers or accountants) are included only if the company is required by law to use such services or if the use of professional services are solicited by the majority of entrepreneurs. Paid-in minimum capital requirement is the amount that an entrepreneur is required to deposit in a bank or with a notary prior to or within 3 months of company registration. Please note that all time and cost estimates for each procedure should be provided assuming that no bribe is offered to the officials. Similarly, please assume that no procedure can be skipped through a bribe payment.
10 3.1 Please update the data below, taking into account the case study assumptions provided in section 1. Please describe in detail any change to the data and indicate when the change took effect. When your answers differ from last year's information, please specify whether this is due to a correction, a reform or other reason. Last year's information Please update last Comments (correction, year's information reform, other) Most common type of Private Limit ed Same as previous domestic limited liability Company year company in India (Mumbai). Minimum capital requirement INR 0 Same as previous year Paid-in minimum capital INR 0 Same as previous requirement (minimum amount to be deposited prior to or within 3 months of company registration) year 3.2 Please revise as needed the following list of procedures to start a company in Mumbai based on the scenario described in section 1. Procedure 1 Time: Cost: Agency: Procedure Details: Obtain a digital signature certificate Time last year: 1-3 days Time update: NA Can this procedure be done simultaneously with another procedure? -Click to Select- If so, which other procedure can it be done simultaneously with? NA Cost last year: INR 700 to INR 2,500 per Digital Signature Certificate Cost update: 0 Legal basis for the fee (including a link to the fee schedule where available): The fee attributable to DSC is levied by a private agency for issuance and does not stem from a statutory requirement. Any variance of cost (INR ) is associated with the term and class of DSC. Agency last year: Authorized private agency (Federal) Agency update: Details: The applicant must obtain a Class-II Digital Signature Certificate from a certification agency authorized by the Controller of Certification Agencies. These include private agencies like NIC, E-Mudhra, MTNL Trust line, to which company directors submit the prescribed application form along with notarized proof of identity and address. A Class-II Digital Signature Certificate can be obtained for either a period of 1 year or a period of 2 years, and then needs to be renewed for another 1 or 2 years upon payment of renewal fees. Each agency has its own fee structure, ranging from INR 700 to INR The cost will vary in accordance with the duration of the Digital Signature Certificate. Once the Digital Signature Certificate is obtained, the authorized personnel (directors/manager/secretary) are required to register the same with MCA for statutory e-filing. Your comments: The requirement of a DSC is not specific to registration of companies and a person may have a DSC readily available for a variety of online transactions. Hence to count it as an additional process, may reflect an incorrect stance. Evidently, this would not count as a step in case an individual is in possession of a DSC.

Since 2003/04, UTI and NSDL have become the authorized agencies that process PAN registration applications on behalf of the Income Tax department. The applicant completes Form 49A (statutory form for applying for PAN), pays the due fees of INR 93 (plus applicable taxes currently at 12.36%) either online or otherwise and submits the application form together with proof of identity, proof of address and 2 recent photographs to the authorized agent/designated service centers for verification. After being allotted a PAN number, UTIISL or NSDL will print the PAN card and deliver it to the applicant. Your comments: Stakeholders have to now mandatorily apply for PAN and TAN alongwith the integrated e-form SPICe for incorporation of a company.
