12 August 2025 Here’s how to address the MCA remark regarding name reservation through SPICe+, specifically relating to Rule 8A(1)(p) of Companies (Incorporation) Fifth Amendment Rules, 2019.
This rule applies when the proposed company name includes any regulated activity (e.g., Insurance, Banking, Finance, Stock Exchange, etc.), and hence, MCA requires:

A Declaration confirming compliance with sectoral regulator requirements
A No Objection Certificate (NOC), where applicable
✅ 1. Format of Declaration under Rule 8A(1)(p)
[To be printed on the letterhead of the applicant / proposed company or on plain paper, signed by the applicant/director/designated partner]
DECLARATION UNDER RULE 8A(1)(p) OF THE COMPANIES (INCORPORATION) RULES, 2014

To
The Registrar of Companies,
[State ROC Address]

Subject: Declaration as per Rule 8A(1)(p) – Name Reservation for Proposed Company “[Proposed Name]”

I, [Name], S/o [Father’s Name], resident of [Address], in the capacity of [applicant/director/designated partner], do hereby declare that:

1. The proposed name “[Proposed Company Name]” includes the word(s) [mention regulated word(s), e.g., “Finance”, “Insurance”, “Bank” etc.], which is governed by [Name of Regulator, e.g., RBI/IRDAI/SEBI].

2. The proposed company shall carry on the business of [brief business description].

3. As per Rule 8A(1)(p) of the Companies (Incorporation) Rules, 2014, I hereby confirm that the requirements mandated by the concerned regulatory authority, i.e., [RBI/IRDAI/SEBI/Other], have been duly complied with.
