What does this company actually earn?
Revenue and profit come from the audited financial statements attached to the annual filing. You get the statement as filed, not a number someone retyped.

What the register tells you about any Indian company
Indian companies file their accounts, their board changes and their borrowings with the registrar, and those filings are public. This is what that means in practice.
Who actually runs it?
Current directors, and every appointment and resignation with its date, so you can see who was on the board when a decision was taken.
With filings
Is this company even real, and still alive?
Legal name, CIN, incorporation date and current status. A company showing Strike Off no longer legally exists, whatever its website says.
Free lookup
Has it pledged its assets to a lender?
Charges created, modified and satisfied. An unreleased charge from years ago is the expensive surprise in a property or asset deal.
With filings
Who owns it, and how is the capital split?
Shareholding and capital structure from the annual return, plus what the company was incorporated with.
With filings
Is it filing on time, or quietly in default?
The presence or absence of annual filings, by year. A three-year gap is a finding in itself, and we tell you it is a gap rather than an error.

Every company and LLP on the register
37 lakh
companies and LLPs you can look up for nothing
- Legal name
- CIN or LLPIN
- Status
- Date of incorporation
- State
This is more useful than it sounds. Status alone answers the question most people actually have: is this company real, and is it still alive? A company whose status reads Strike Off has been removed from the register and no longer legally exists, however current its website looks.
The CIN carries more still. It encodes the listing status, the industry, the state, the year of incorporation and the company type, so a single identifier tells you roughly what you are dealing with before you open a single document.
A free account goes further, still for nothing: the whole register record, meaning the registered office, capital, directors, signatories and the charges over the company’s assets. With it come any director’s record, the connections between them, and an alert when something new is filed.
What none of that tells you is money. Revenue, profit, shareholding and borrowings live in the filings themselves, and those are paid.
All eight categories, for every company in an order
MCA organises a company's documents into eight categories and sells them one at a time. A partial pull is a partial picture, so we take all of them.
Incorporation Documents
Annual Returns and Balance Sheet eForms
Change in Directors/Designated Partner
Charge Documents
Certificates
LLP Forms (Conversion of company to LLP)

What lands in your hands
Readable PDFs, not encoded archives
MCA serves documents as encoded .OCT archives. Entiva turns them into
readable PDFs, checks that every file opens, and organises them by company and category.
A record for every file
Each set ships with a record of every file in it. If a document later matters to a transaction or a dispute, you can show that what you hold is exactly what the registry served.
Kept past the registry’s window
MCA’s paid access window closes after seven days. Your sets stay in your account afterwards, so a fee is never spent twice on the same company.
Answers tied to the filings
Once you hold a company’s filings, you can ask questions about them. Each answer points back to its source and says when the documents do not contain the answer. You can also ask in your own ChatGPT or Claude.
Four things the register will not tell you
Primary records are the strongest evidence available, and they still have limits. Better you hear them from us than discover them mid-decision.
- It holds what was filed, not what is true. A document proves a filing was made on a date. It does not prove the contents were accurate.
- Filings lag reality by months. Annual accounts arrive well after the year they describe: for a 31 March year end they are not due until about 30 October, 7 months later, and late filers take longer. Nobody has a current revenue figure for a private Indian company, including us.
- Some companies simply have not filed. Where a company is in default a category can be genuinely empty. We tell an empty category apart from one MCA would not hand over, and say which one we found.
- This is not legal or investment advice. We deliver primary documents. What they mean for your decision is a judgement for you and your advisers.
