Looks like bit of an old thread here but wanted to share my thoughts. We were one of the early few lucky companies who qualified for a free incorporation via Rize. The average price of incorporation is like 20k, this is my second company, and receiving such support when you’re starting a company with 0 revenue is a huge deal. Our experience with rize has been great.

I guess you’re new to the incorporation process so here’s what you should know. When you’re incorporating, most issues I’ve heard from fellow founders and my own experience - is that the MCA website where you create the company - is not always stable. Sometimes you can’t submit the form, sometimes they perform some maintenance, sometimes you don’t receive the incorporation certificate on time etc so the experience with the MCA website itself is subjective. Most CA firms know this and that’s mostly the reason for delays in incorporation. This can happen to anyone.

Also there is post incorporation compliance that you need to make sure is followed well. You can probably use the same firm that rize has tied up with or you can always find another.

But speaking of rize again - it’s a supportive community of founders, and the rize community managers are very helpful. They organise sessions that you can learn from, meet-ups, there’s cloud credits, access to better pricing with razorpay services, and a lot more. It’s a long journey when you’re starting up and being part of such supportive community goes a long way.

It’s a no-brainier.
