How to Check the Registration Status of a Company?

Any person can check the status of any company by following a simple procedure. Not just the registration status rather all the other information about the company including its name, address, CIN etc can be checked on the official website of Ministry of Corporate Affairs. 

A company is a voluntary organization incorporated to carry on a business. In India, there are multiple types of companies including the One Person Company, sole proprietorship firm, private limited company, public limited company and limited liability firm. In order to get a legal identity and recognition, it is important for every company to get registered with the ministry of corporate affairs.  After being registered the comprehensive data related to the company is being stored in the database of the ministry. In order to ensure transparency, every person is empowered to check this database and get the desired information about the company.  You can check the details like Company registration number, type of company, date of incorporation, charges of a company, directors of the company, etc. from the site.
