Process
1. Decide a name for your company: Deciding on a name for the company is very important as this is the brand for which you will be working for the rest of your life. You should like the name and be able to relate yourself to the company.
2. Buy a domain name: You should buy a domain name for your company. It's compulsory because nobody would trust a company that doesn't have a good website, and a domain name is very important for having a website.
3. Get your website designed and hosted: The next step is to get yourself a professional website design for your company.
4. Choose the type of company you want to open: Deciding which type of company you want to open is something you have to do. There are four types of companies you can form in India.
• Sole Proprietorship: A sole proprietorship, also known as a sole trader or simply proprietorship, is a type of business entity owned and run by one individual where there is no legal distinction between the owner and the business. All profits and losses accrue to the owner. All assets of the business are owned by the proprietor, and all debts of the business are his debts, which he must pay from his personal resources.
• Partnership: A partnership is a type of business entity in which partners (owners) share with each other the profits or losses of the business. Partnerships are often favored over corporations for taxation purposes, as the partnership structure does not generally incur a tax on profits before it is distributed to the partners.
• Private Limited: A private company is a type of company incorporated in India. It has shareholders with limited liability, and its shares may not be offered to the general public, unlike those of public limited companies.
• Public Limited: A public limited company is a type of limited company in India that is permitted to offer its shares to the public.
5. Starting as a sole proprietorship firm: If you are starting alone, I recommend you start as a sole proprietor because it's easy to start, and total control is in your hands. There are not many formalities for this kind of firm; you just have to get a current account ready in your name, and you are ready to do business. However, if your company turnover reaches 10 lakhs per year, you will have to register for service tax.
6. Open a current account in any bank: Opening a current account is the most important part of business. If you are opening a sole proprietorship firm and have your service tax registration done, you can open an account in any bank you want. But if you have not applied for service tax registration, you can opt for government banks to open the account. You can look for IDBI Bank, as opening a current account is quite easy in that bank. For opening a current account, you will need a company letterhead, visiting card, and company stamp.
7. Buy Naukri or Monster login: You have to buy Naukri or Monster login to supply candidates to your clients. This is the costly part of the consultancy business, but you have to buy this to get started. Naukri login costs around Rs. 1 lakh for 12 months. You can buy it anytime, but I recommend you buy it once you get your first client. Don't forget to negotiate, as who knows, you can get a better deal.
8. You are ready to do the business. Just go ahead and start searching for clients.
