Raising investment usually means raising first — your MOA caps the shares you can legally issue. The process: shareholder special resolution → MOA amendment → filing → stamp duty on the increase. Investors expect this done in days, not weeks. We run the full cycle with the right stamp-duty calculation for your state.

Questions, answered

Why is stamp duty so state-dependent?
Each state charges its own rate on the increase amount — Delhi at 0.15%, Maharashtra has its own slab, some states cap the absolute figure. We calculate exactly before you pay. Common mistake: founders quote the MCA fee and forget stamp duty — which can be 5×–10× the MCA fee.
Do I need this before issuing new shares to an investor?
Only if your existing authorised capital is below the new total. If you already have ₹10 lakh authorised and only ₹1 lakh issued, you can issue up to ₹9 lakh more without an increase. Check before the round closes.
How fast can this be done if the round is tomorrow?
Realistically 3 working days minimum (MCA filing approval). Resolutions can be drafted same-day; the bottleneck is portal processing. Tell us early and we sequence around your round closing.
