A useful quotation begins with assumptions. State the entity type, registered-office state, proposed authorised capital, number and nationality/residence of subscribers and directors, whether anyone already has a DIN/DSC, the nature of the objects, and whether the office is owned, rented or used with consent. Ask the professional to list what changes if any assumption is wrong. This turns a headline fee into an auditable scope.
The quotation should separate statutory filing or stamp amounts from professional fees and third-party tools. It should also state whether name resubmission, altered objects, notarisation/apostille, additional attachments, bank-account support or state registrations are included. Do not accept “all government fees included” without the form, basis and state assumption beside each amount.
