As a software developer in India, I’m eager to start my own software consulting firm. What are the essential legal obligations and paperwork needed to establish a company?

To establish a software consulting firm in India, you need to register your company with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). You’ll need to choose a company structure (private limited, LLP, etc.), draft a Memorandum and Articles of Association, obtain necessary licenses and permits, and comply with tax and labor laws.
