Before a limited liability company is registered in partnership with Indians, the promoters agree and sign a Joint Venture Agreement. This agreement details the shareholding, capital contribution, duties and responsibilities of the directors in the conduct of business and how the company can be dissolved or Exit Route. Based on this agreement, a legally binding Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association for the proposed company is drawn up. After an approval is obtained for its name from the Registrar of Companies, it is incorporated or registered with the Registrar. All this takes a good two or three months.
