Section 8 Company registration involves a non-profit organization that is incorporated to promote certain activities such as education, sports, science, religion, research, social welfare, cultural activities, and other goals with similar objectives. The revenue generated from this company is utilized to promote instead of distributing it amongst the company’s members like a private or public limited company or any other type of business.

For incorporating a company under Section 8 of the Companies Act 2013, there is a requirement of a minimum of two directors in the case of private limited companies and three directors in the case of public limited companies. No minimum paid-up or authorized capital is required for a Section 8 Company registration. This write-up will focus on the key objectives and benefits of a Section 8 company and the process for registering a Section 8 company.

What are the requirements of Section 8 Company registration?

There are several requirements for setting up a Section 8 company, as follows:

  1. Minimum number of directors – There should be a minimum number of two directors for setting up a section 8 company, in case the company is to be set up as a private or public limited company. For a private limited company, the maximum number of members should be 200; for a public limited company, the maximum number of members is unlimited.

      2. Paid-up capital – In a Section 8 Company, there is no threshold for paid-up capital, and the company also should not use words like “limited” or “private limited” along with the company name.

      3. MOA and AOA – The MOA and AOA of the Section 8 company should clearly state the purpose of the company. In a section 8 company, the profit earned cannot be distributed among the company members. Therefore, any profit generated from the company transactions must be utilized towards its objective or development.

      4. Management of the company – In a section 8 company, the company’s management is handled by the company’s director and not by any trustee or other member.

      5. Digital signature certificate (DSC) – The proposed director must digitally sign all the forms for Section 8 Company registration. Therefore, there is a need to obtain the DSC, which is granted by the government certifying agencies. The digital signature certificate required for the section 8 company is of the class 3 category.

      6. Director Identification Number (DIN) – The proposed directors have to apply for the DIN allotment in form DIR3 along with some documents such as Identity verification, PAN, and Address proof in the MCA portal, which must be attested by a professional such as a CA, CS, or Cost Accountant.
