Filing SPICe+ with RoC Chandigarh

Stamp Duty & Cost of Company Registration in Chandigarh
Stamp duty on incorporation is a state subject. In Chandigarh the MoA carries a nominal duty while the Articles of Association are charged as a small percentage of authorised capital (subject to a cap) — all e-stamped automatically inside the SPICe+ (INC-32) form. The MCA also charges zero government filing fee for authorised capital up to ₹15 lakh.
| Authorised Capital | Govt / MCA Filing Fee | Chandigarh Stamp Duty (approx) | TAXAJ Professional Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to ₹1 Lakh | Nil | Nominal (MoA + AoA) | ₹11,999 |
| ₹1 – ₹5 Lakh | Nil | Small % of authorised capital | from ₹11,999 |
| ₹5 – ₹15 Lakh | Nil | Small % of authorised capital | Custom quote |
| Above ₹15 Lakh | As per MCA capital slab | As per Chandigarh Stamp Act | Custom quote |
*Indicative only. Government fee and stamp duty are billed at actuals and computed automatically in SPICe+ based on your capital. Estimate precisely with our Company Stamp Duty Calculator and MCA Fee Calculator.
