Transparent Price Breakdowns
Official statutory government fees (stamp duties, MCA charges, FoSCoS tariffs) are always clearly separated from professional service fees.
Clear Private Entity Role
We proudly serve as your private facilitator. We do not impersonate government portals or claim special discretionary favors from authorities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions founders ask about business registration, timelines, and working with Guide to Grow.
No. Guide to Grow is an independent private consultancy and technology platform. We are not a government agency and have no official affiliation with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN), or any statutory department. We facilitate documentation, compliance workflows, and coordinate with qualified independent professionals.
Yes. Under the Companies Act, an Indian company can have its registered office at a residential address (whether owned or rented), provided you submit a recent electricity bill/utility bill and a signed No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the property owner.
Government fees (such as state stamp duties, MCA filing fees, and FoSCoS charges) vary significantly based on your state of registration, authorized capital, and business entity type. By presenting these transparently, you see exactly what goes directly to the government versus our professional support fee.
Government officers occasionally request clarifications (resubmission in SPICe+ or Examination Reports in TM-A). We review the specific query raised by the department, explain it to you in plain language, and coordinate the drafting of an appropriate formal response.
