Overview
What is a company name change?
A company name change is the formal process of altering your registered company name with the MCA — requiring board and shareholder approval, name availability check, and filing to amend the Memorandum of Association and Certificate of Incorporation.
The company's CIN stays the same; only the name changes, so all your existing contracts, PAN and bank accounts continue, updated to reflect the new name.
Why change it
