The company as reciver of commisison service need not register. The company as the reciver of the service need not insist as they have no obligation. However if there is any expectation by the agents that the company would take care of legal compliacne the company may inform the agents that there is a liability beyond 10 lakhs and that registration is required after the limit of Rs.9 lakhs.
