1. Company Incorporation and Entity Formation

We assist in setting up companies, LLPs, trusts, Section 8 (not-for-profit) entities, societies, and wholly-owned subsidiaries, guiding founders through registration, statutory filings, and structuring decisions appropriate to their business model.

2. Drafting and Negotiation of Business Contracts

Our team drafts and negotiates sales agreements, service agreements, commercial contracts, vendor agreements, and employment contracts. Each agreement is reviewed for enforceability under Indian contract law and structured to protect our client's commercial interests.

We advise on employment contracts, workplace policies, and the structuring of Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) for employees and board members, in line with applicable Indian corporate and labour law requirements.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does Ethical Legal Consultants handle company registration in Gurgaon? Yes. Our Gurgaon office assists with incorporation of private limited companies, LLPs, and other entity structures, along with the related ROC and statutory filings.

Q: Can you draft commercial contracts for a business based outside Gurgaon or Faridabad? Yes, our corporate law team advises clients across Delhi NCR and can review or draft contracts remotely where an in-person meeting isn't required.

Q: How long does company incorporation take in India? A private limited company is typically incorporated within 7 to 15 working days through the MCA's SPICe+ (INC-32) process, provided the name approval, digital signatures, and documentation are in order. Delays usually arise from name rejections or registered office address proof issues.

Q: Do you represent companies in litigation, or only handle transactional/compliance work? Both. Alongside incorporation, contracts, and compliance, we represent corporate clients in court and tribunal proceedings, including commercial disputes and regulatory matters.

Q: Should a new business be registered as a Private Limited Company or an LLP? This depends on factors such as funding plans, liability protection, compliance appetite, and ownership structure. Private limited companies face more compliance requirements but are generally preferred by investors, while LLPs involve simpler compliance but have different restrictions on ownership and fundraising. We advise clients on the right structure based on their specific business plans.

Q: Can Ethical Legal Consultants assist with ESOP structuring for startups? Yes. We assist in drafting ESOP schemes and vesting terms for employees and board members, structured in accordance with applicable Indian company law and tax provisions. Specific tax treatment should be confirmed with the company's chartered accountant, as it depends on individual circumstances.
