About FGA Filing
The practice serves founders, MSMEs and growing enterprises across India on the routine legal events a business hits in its first ten to fifteen years. The work breaks down into four core areas: company incorporation and entity conversion under the Companies Act 2013 and the LLP Act 2008, trademark prosecution under the Trade Marks Act 1999, annual ROC and MCA compliance
The practice operates with a deliberately narrow service footprint. When a client question crosses into those areas, we refer the work to a verified specialist rather than improvise outside our practice area. This focus is intentional. It lets the Company Secretary on each file be the person who actually drafts your MOA, signs off on your SPICe+ filing and tracks the ROC response from start to finish.

Who We Work With
The practice works with a mix of profiles that share one thing in common: they want a real practitioner on their file rather than a customer support queue. Some of the most common engagements we run.

- NRIs and foreign nationals setting up an Indian operating arm under the post 2021 OPC reforms or as a wholly owned Indian subsidiary
- MSMEs and growing enterprises needing reliable annual ROC compliance, trademark filings and event based MCA filings as the business expands
- Founders preparing for funding who need a clean compliance trail, an LLP to private limited conversion, an authorised capital increase or an ESOP issuance set up properly
- Family run businesses moving from a partnership firm to an LLP or pvt ltd, or restructuring share holdings across generations
- Non profit founders setting up Section 8 companies and navigating 12A, 80G and CSR 1 registrations
