What entity type should a foreign company use to set up in India?
For most GCCs, a Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) under the Companies Act 2013 is the standard structure. It allows 100% FDI under the automatic route for IT/ITES, provides limited liability, and enables ESOP issuance.
How long does company registration take in India?
SPICe+ processing typically takes 7–10 working days from filing. With DIN, DSC, and name availability pre-work, the full incorporation timeline is 3–5 weeks.
Is a resident director mandatory?
Yes. Section 149(3) of the Companies Act 2013 requires at least one director to have stayed in India for at least 182 days in the previous calendar year. irpr.network provides a nominee resident director service.

FC-GPR (Foreign Currency Gross Provisional Return) is a mandatory RBI filing within 30 days of share allotment when a foreign company invests equity in an Indian company. Delay attracts compounding penalties.
