Check these first

  • State the exact expected result and the exact result you have now.
  • Find the official record that owns the result and compare it with your evidence.
  • Change one thing at a time, then verify the final state before moving on.

Fix it in this order

  1. State the exact expected result and the exact result you have now.
  2. Find the official record that owns the result and compare it with your evidence.
  3. Create one source-of-truth sheet for names, PAN/passport, addresses, capital, ownership, objects, and registered office.
  4. Use the current MCA workflow and current forms; do not copy an old screenshot tutorial.
  5. When a form is rejected or resubmission is requested, answer the exact remark and avoid changing unrelated fields.
  6. Verify every generated certificate/registration output after approval.
  7. Keep the complete filing trail, DSC/signing record, acknowledgement, and post-incorporation checklist together.

Build the proof pack

  • MCA SRN/acknowledgement
  • Identity and registered-office evidence
  • Final signed forms/attachments
  • Resubmission remark and correction note

Avoid making the case harder

  • Sharing DSC credentials casually
  • Using inconsistent spellings across forms
  • Assuming name approval equals trademark clearance

How you know it is really fixed

  • The official record and your real-world result agree.
  • You have enough written evidence to prove the issue is finished if it returns later.

If it is still not fixed

  1. MCA helpdesk/ticket route
  2. Professional correction where a filing/legal interpretation is involved
  3. Cybercrime/police route for impersonation or payment scams
