Consumer, commercial & cheque-bounce matters
Senior advocates for NCLT, consumer forum, civil and NI Act 138 cases.
Overview
When a legal notice doesn't resolve a dispute, the next step is formal litigation or arbitration. RegisterEase's litigation panel handles civil, commercial, criminal (cheque bounce), consumer, and IPR matters across India. We file in the appropriate forum — civil court for contract breach, magistrate court for NI 138, consumer forum for service deficiencies, IPR-specific tribunals for trademark/copyright, and arbitral tribunals for contracts with arbitration clauses.
The most common matter we file is Section 138 (NI Act) — cheque bounce, which becomes a criminal complaint if the drawer fails to pay within 15 days of the legal notice. We file the complaint in the magistrate court of the place where the cheque was presented, attend all hearings, examine witnesses, and pursue judgment + recovery. Typical timeline: 12-18 months for trial-court verdict; immediate interim relief is rare. We charge ₹14,999 for filing + first 3 hearings, then ₹2,499 per additional hearing.
For civil suits — breach of contract, recovery of dues, partition, declaratory suits — pricing depends on suit value and jurisdiction (district court vs commercial court for ≥ ₹3 Cr suits). Standard package: ₹24,999 for filing + plaint drafting + initial appearance, then per-hearing fees. We also file summary suits under Order XXXVII CPC for clean recoveries (faster than regular civil suits). For arbitration, we file Section 11 applications for arbitrator appointment, draft statement of claim, attend tribunal hearings, and challenge / enforce awards.
Free case assessment call before you commit — we give you an honest read on (a) merits of the case, (b) cost-benefit (is it worth pursuing for the disputed amount), (c) realistic timeline and recovery odds. Most disputes below ₹2 lakh are NOT worth litigating — we'll tell you upfront and recommend mediation or consumer forum instead. For disputes ₹10 lakh+, our success rate at first-court level is 64% across the last 3 years.

Customer Reviews
Real reviews from 18+ verified founders who registered their Private Limited Company with RegisterEase. From Mumbai to Guwahati, Kolkata to Kochi.
I was honestly tired of agents asking ₹15-20k upfront with no clarity. Paid only ₹2,499 on RegisterEase, my draft MoA and AoA were ready on day 4, and they explained every clause before submitting SPICe+. Incorporation certificate landed on day 16. The transparent state-wise stamp duty calculator was the deciding factor for me.
My co-founder is in Singapore so we needed help with the Apostille for his director documents. The relationship manager handled the entire foreign-director workflow without us chasing. DIN, DSC and PAN/TAN all came together. Will recommend to every founder I meet.
Other portals quoted me ₹9,500 'all-inclusive' and then asked extra for AoA stamp duty. Here the calculator showed me Tamil Nadu stamp duty (₹520) upfront. Final cost matched the quote to the rupee. That's rare in this industry.
Whole process was clean — got name approval in 5 days, MoA review email arrived as promised. The eMudhra DSC was slightly delayed because of the video KYC re-attempt, but support called and resolved it the same evening. 4 stars only because of that one delay, otherwise easily 5.
Stamp duty in Gujarat is on the higher side because of the AoA percentage rule. Their team explained it patiently and even suggested keeping authorised capital at ₹1 lakh to save ~₹2,500. Tiny advice that mattered. Got my COI within 19 days end-to-end.
What sold me was that I paid ₹1,499 upfront and reviewed all the drafts before paying the balance. I made 2 changes to the MoA object clause and they redid it without complaining. This is how every legal service should work.
We are a D2C apparel brand and needed a watertight object clause covering both manufacturing and marketplace sales. The CA spent a full 25 minute call with me drafting it. Two MCA queries were resolved by their team without me even knowing. Incorporation certificate landed in 18 days.
Pro plan was worth the extra ₹1,000. They verified all my docs the same evening I uploaded. Telangana stamp duty was correctly calculated (we have the 0.15% AoA rule). MSME certificate also done as part of the package. Highly professional outfit.
I had zero idea about MCA, SPICe+, INC-32 — all of it. Their executive walked me through every form on a screen-share call. Even helped me pick the right NIC code for my consultancy business. Got the COI in 22 days. Thank you team!
