What is a Company Name Change?

A company name change is a formal amendment to the company's Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Certificate of Incorporation, approved by the MCA. The process requires both board approval and shareholder approval via a special resolution, followed by filing Form INC-24 with the Registrar of Companies.

When Do You Need a Name Change?

  • Rebranding: The business has evolved and the current name no longer reflects its identity
  • Business pivot: The company has changed its core business activity
  • Trademark conflict: The existing name conflicts with a registered trademark
  • Legal requirement: MCA or court direction to change the name
  • Merger or acquisition: Post-merger rebranding of the entity

Name Change Process

1
Check Name Availability (RUN)

We apply for the proposed new name through the MCA's RUN (Reserve Unique Name) portal. The name must comply with MCA naming guidelines and must not be identical or deceptively similar to an existing company or LLP.

2
Board Resolution

A board meeting is held and a resolution is passed approving the proposed new name and authorising the filing of the name change application.

3
EGM & Special Resolution

An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) is convened. Shareholders pass a special resolution (75% majority) approving the name change and the consequent alteration of the MOA.

4
File INC-24 with MCA

Form INC-24 is filed on the MCA portal along with the special resolution, altered MOA, and other supporting documents. The ROC reviews the application.

5
New Certificate of Incorporation

Upon approval, the ROC issues a fresh Certificate of Incorporation with the new company name. The old name is officially replaced.

6
Update All Registrations

After receiving the new COI, all registrations must be updated — GST, PAN, TAN, bank accounts, contracts, letterheads, and any other statutory registrations.

Important Points

  • The new name must comply with MCA naming guidelines (no offensive words, no misleading terms)
  • Cannot be identical or deceptively similar to an existing registered company or LLP
  • Private limited companies must end with "Private Limited"; public companies with "Limited"
  • All statutory documents, contracts, and registrations must be updated after the name change
  • The company's legal identity (CIN, PAN, TAN) remains the same — only the name changes
