About this template
What is this template?
This is a legal authorization for a specific representative to handle administrative and legal tasks for company registration in India. It is not a general power of attorney and is limited strictly to the incorporation process and related statutory filings. It includes specific powers to sign the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association.
When should you use it?
Use this when a shareholder or director cannot be present to sign incorporation papers in person and needs a representative to handle the Registrar of Companies. Use a General Power of Attorney instead if broader management rights over an existing company are required.
