What is SPICe+?

SPICe+ (Simplified Proforma for Incorporating Company Electronically Plus), technically designated as Form INC-32, is the flagship web-based form introduced by the MCA to drastically simplify company registration in India. It replaces multiple older forms by offering over 10 services integrated into a single application, allowing entrepreneurs to register their business, obtain PAN, TAN, EPFO, ESIC, and optionally GST in one go.

Who Must File SPICe+?

Any entrepreneur, promoter, or professional seeking to incorporate a new Private Limited, Public Limited, or One Person Company (OPC) in India must use the SPICe+ web form.

SPICe+ Due Date & Timeline

Because SPICe+ is an initial registration form, there is no "due date" per se. However, if you reserve a company name via SPICe+ Part A, that name is only valid for 20 days. You must file Part B to complete incorporation within this 20-day window.

Consequences of Late Filing SPICe+

There are no late fees for SPICe+ since it is an initial application. If you fail to file Part B within the 20-day name reservation window, the reserved name will expire, and you will have to pay ā‚¹1,000 to reserve a name again.
