Decoding the benefits of registering a Business

There are lots of benefits which are there of registering a business in India and they are as follows-

It gives you a structure- By forming a new company, it gives you a better structure of business, like suppose if you want to open a one man company then you can go for One person company formation, or if there are Partners in your company then you must opt for a Partnership Firm and by forming a company, it helps in smoothly running of a firm.
Without structure there is no order in the company and therefore it affects the profit margin of the company. Therefore when we talk about business then we must focus on how must give a properly organized structure to your business idea.
By opting for a registration of company, it gives a separate entity to your business, as you get certificate of incorporation which can be called as a Birth Certificate of your newly formed company.
There is perpetual existence of a company, like when we open a startup , then everyone one only wants to make money but also they want to establish a legacy. When a business is registered it gives a separate entity. If and when the owner of the business dies the business can continue to exist. Its ownership can be transferred to another Director, or it can lie dormant.
Registered business are more trustworthy, basically unregistered business is worthless as before doing any business, anyone wants to have safe business and they do not want to lose in their services, therefore registered business are termed as more understandable as compared to the unregistered one.
Limited liability partnership is probably the most overused terms when it comes to “ benefits of Business Registration”, however people are still fuzzy about its meaning. So Limited Liability means that a company is a separate legal entity and it has to bear its own losses.

Conclusion

When it comes to business registration, there are many but when we talk about its benefits, there we lack, I hope that through this blog we have enlightened you with the understanding of what the benefit actually means.

Cobimining with this rules for Director Qualification and appointment, MCA has released a new notification for companies 2nd amendment of 2019, it states as follows-

“Where a company governed by Rule 25A of Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014, fails to file the e-form ACTIVE within the period specified therein, the Director Identification Number (DIN) allotted to its existing Directors, shall be marked a Director of ACTIVE Non-compliant company.

Let’s talk about Director Disqualification

As per Rules of Companies Act, under certain circumstances, a director of a company can be disqualified by the MCA. when that happens, the Director’s DIN is removed from the registry. As a result, the Director can no longer be associated with the company. Where you can definitely remove the Director disqualification by filing a Petition o the Court, what if the Director of a company is appointed to again goes non-complaint because of Non- filing of INC-22A.

ACTIVE e-form INC 22A

MCA introduced this form back in january. Important and mandatory for companies that were registered before 31st December, 2017, this form’s main reason was to tag companies that are active (Currently doing business), through active tagging and verification it tries to locate shell companies. If the companies does not file INC 22A within the extended period of due date, it is marked in the MCA registry as “ACTIVE non compliant. It means that the company is active but has not filed the ACTIVE e-form.

Director of Non-compliant company

Before the mentioned notification, it was only the company that was marked as non- compliant. However, with the announcement of companies act, 2nd amendment notification, the meaning is this,

“ If the company is marked as Non- compliant in the mCA registry because INC 22a was not filed the DIN of the Director of that company is marked as “ Director of ACTIVE Non- compliant company”.

The notification further states that when the Director’s DIN is marked as Director of ACTIVE Non- compliant company, then they have to take all the necessary steps to file the complaint and to remove this mark. In this case the step would be to file INC 22A.

Further the notification states that once the Director files the Compliance INC-22A their DIN will be marked as Director of ACTIVE Non- compliant company.

5 Tips- How To Pick Or Find The Perfect Brand Name Of Your Product?

“The first impressions is everything”

When you have access to a product that you trade with, you would want for it to be remembered. How it is remembered on the basis of how you name it and naming the product is the whole essence of branding. With a right name, any product that comes into the market can grab the attention of the onlookers.

This was probably the same thought that the creators of coca-cola had! Now look at it, one of the leading products of our generation with nearly 200 years of existence.

Do you want to make sure that your service or your brand name is on the lips of everyone out there?

Well, it is not even a question, is it? Of course you! Well, to that end, let us tell you some tips that will assist you with naming the product in a best way possible.

Naming the brand in the best way possible:

The following tips that we are going to tell you about are applicable for every product that you can use to grab the attention of the consumers or the service seekers.

Choose a name that you can speak right: for something to be able to sound right, you should be able to speak it right as well. While you are naming your trade, speak it out and clear. If your mouth does not move a lot, then it is interesting, if it moves too much, then it is overly complicated. Therefore, choose the name that is impactful and yet, and a bit subtle as well.

Your brand name should be able to sound right: now, in order for the name of the brand to sound right, it should not be confusing in any shape or form. Choosing a right sounding name can be tricky because of the simple reason that you need the output of others in this. Go outside and ask complete strangers about the name. you will be surprised to hear how man strangers give you the right response. Take them to heed and rename of your brand if you have to, but makes sure that it sounds right.

Get all of your legal aspect: now, if you want to brand your product in a way that it grows without hindrance like the name getting stolen by other individuals. To that end, you need to make sure that your mark is unique. To get this information, you need to do a trademark search. This search will tell you of the name you have chosen is right and is available for your trade.

Give your name a test run online: one of the ways to know as to whether your ideas will be successful will be with blogs and other online methods. Therefore, once you have thought on a name, you need to start a blog with the name as a domain name or you can start a Facebook group with that name. the amount of people who are going to like the group when you first start the page, is also a form of confirmation from a public that you can look into.

Choose a name that is somehow descriptive and also is not descriptive: this might be the most confusing name that you have ever read. To that end, let us clear this up for you. When you want to choose the brand name the first thought that goes through your head is to name it in such a way, that somehow, the quality and type of your product are emphasized in it. However, this cannot happen. To that end, you can make use of such entities to name your brand that does not claim the quality of your product outright, but does it in a subtle manner. To exemplify, when you hear “Jaquar” you automatically think fast car, sports car etc. similarly when you hear “ Ambuja”, the strength of your word accentuates on reinforcement and therefore, it is the trademark name for a particular brand of cement.

If you go by the last tip, you might think that the entire matter is tricky. To be honest, it is. However, if you follow along these tips you can be assured that the brand name that you decide upon is not only growth worthy but also durable.

Also after choosing the brand name , you must also get it Trademarked so that no one else can copy the same .
