    Step 2

    Name reservation

    We will file application for name reservation with the company registrar. If the name is available then the approval usually comes in 1-2 hours. However if the name you wish to reserve contains specific words like bank, insurance, law, government, ministry etc then the name will be referred to relevant authorities. In that case the approval can take as long as 1 month.
    It might also happen that the name you wish to use is rejected as it is too close to an existing business name. In that case you will need to select some other name.
    Once the name is approved we can prepare the incorporation documents.
