About Change in Company Name

If you are planning to rebrand your business or align your name with a new business activity, a formal name change must be approved and filed with the government. The name change process is regulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. LegalLinker manages the entire name change process end-to-end.

Process: Change in company name requires approval of a new name, amendment of Memorandum and Articles of Association, shareholder approval, and filing of statutory forms. Once approved, a fresh certificate of incorporation reflecting the new name is issued.
