I want to incorporate a company starting with name 'xpress', I am confused whether MCA considers 'xpress' and 'Express' as same? Name will be allowed if company with same name already registered under name 'Express'?
Using different phonetic spellings or spelling variations will not be accepted, as this does not distinguish one name from another. For example, J.K. Industries limited is existing then J and K Industries or Jay Kay Industries or J n K Industries or J & K Industries will not be allowed. Similarly if a name contains numeric character like 3, resemblance shall be checked with ‘Three’ also.
In your case using Xpress will be taken as Express and if similar name exist, it will not be allowed.
