A lot of people wish to start their own manpower consultancy business. The following steps provide a guideline for setting up the same –
1. Name – Deciding on a name is very important for setting up a business as you would want to build a brand image of your company over the course of time.
2. Website – For having a website you need to register a domain name. Domain registration is around Rs 500 and website designing would cost around Rs 7000.
It is advisable to get a professional website design company. Professional designing cost starts around Rs 15000 and basic website hosting would come around Rs 1000 per year.
The website should contain the company profile in the homepage with the address of the location and also the contact details like phone number and email address in a separate link.
There should be other links mentioning the different verticals like manufacturing, retail, banking, media and advertising, etc in which you work or intend to work.
Another link for job seekers may contain sub links where candidates may upload their CV. In a different sub link you may have the option of displaying the current openings of various clients that your company is currently handling.
3. Decide on Business Entity – There are 4 types of company you can form in India. Sole Proprietorship, Partnership, Private Limited and Public Limited.
a)Sole Proprietorship – A sole proprietorship is a type of business entity which is owned and run by one individual and there is no legal distinction between the owner and the business.
All profits and all losses accrue to the owner. All assets of the business are owned by the proprietor and all debts of the business are his debts and he has to pay them from his personal resources.
If you do not wish to go for registration headaches, you can go for sole proprietorship. It is easy to start and all controls reside in the hands of the owner. However, if your company turnover reaches 10 lakhs per year, you will have to register for service tax.
There aren’t too much formalities involved in this kind of company. You just need to get a letterhead printed in your company name, print some business card, get a proprietor stamp made in your company name.
With these in your hand just go to any bank to get a current account opened in your company name. Once you have started your proprietorship firm, you should have these documents handy with you.
If you are opening a sole proprietorship firm and have your service tax registration done, you can open 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.
