Name Change – Company

Company Name Change is a legal process through which an existing company changes its registered name with the approval of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. The name change does not affect the company’s legal identity, obligations, or continuity—only the registered name is updated.

A proper name change ensures brand alignment, compliance, and uninterrupted business operations.
