Certificate of Incorporation not received of Private Limited Company

Dear Sabyasachi Sir,

We have also reported after logging in from our mail id through mca portal.

But they are only giving same response, that COI has been mailed. We have raised two complaints and reopened them 3 times each. but they have given same response 6 times that COI has been mailed.

They are not resending it.

We have mailed 3 times to appl.heldesk @ mca.gov.in & crc.escalation @ mca.gov.in but not a single response from them.

Without COI, We are not able to open bank account and apply for GST.

It is not available in public documents as well.

COI not available with concerned ROC office as well.

Is there any other way to get COI.

Kindly suggest sir.

Thanks

Same experience here too. My CS applied for my pvt ltd formation mid-Jun, and it got formed on 27/Jun. Received the PAN and TAN via email to the company email address, but have never received the COI since. Have raised multiple tickets through the MCA portal, but have always got back the stock standard response that it was sent to the registered email address already. 

Still waiting, with no end in sight. Any pointers to which email address(es) the COI gets sent to? Is that sent to the company email address only, or to all the individual director's emails as well??

TIA.

Finally received the COI. seems it was uploaded to the portal as the approved Spice+ form, but never emailed across. Strange...

CoI for a Private Limited company typically comes within **3 to 5 working days** of filing SPICe+, but the timeline can extend if the Registrar raises a query.

Here is how to check where your application stands:

1. Log into **MCA21 portal** and go to MCA Services > View Company/LLP Master Data. Search your proposed company name.
2. If the company appears with an SRN (Service Request Number), the form is with the Registrar for review.
3. If the Registrar has raised a query, you will get an email on your registered address and you typically have **15 days to respond** with corrections.

Common reasons for delays:
- Name resembles an existing registered company
- Documents incomplete or insufficient (for example, NOC for office address not attached)
- DSC of director flagged in the system

If all documents are clean and there is no query, CoI is usually issued within a week. Once you have the CoI, the first compliance step is **INC-20A** (declaration of commencement of business) which must be filed within 180 days.
