Steps Required For Formation Of New NBFC Company:
Step-1
Formation of Company: The first step is to form a new Company registered under the Companies Act, 1956. The name must reflect the character of an NBFC. Words such as Investment, Finvest, Finstock, Finance etc. may be used as part of the name. In general, RBI does not allow names which are not reflecting the characteristics of NBFC.
Step-2
Minimum Net Owned Fund: After the incorporation of a new company the Paid up Equity Capital of the Company should suitably rose either at par or premium so as to attain a minimum Net Owned Fund of Rs. 2 crores. The Capital to be raised here should be Equity Share Capital and not Preference Share Capital.
Step-3
Opening of a Bank Account: The entire sum of Rs. 2 crores should be kept in a bank in a Deposit Account free from all liens. Normally funds are kept in Fixed Deposit. The RBI at the time of considering the application for the grant of Certificate of Registration verifies the deposits held by the Company with the Bankers.
Step-4
Apply for Certificate of Registration to RBI alongwith Required Documents:
