Producer Company Registration in Ranchi
Bring farmers, dairy producers, fishermen, weavers or artisans together under one legally strong company. We take care of the registration end to end.
Collective strength for producers
A Producer Company is a special kind of company formed by primary producers, such as farmers, dairy producers, fishermen, weavers and artisans. It is governed by the special provisions for producer companies in the Companies Act, and is commonly used to set up Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs).
Members can jointly produce, procure, process, market and sell their produce. This improves bargaining power, access to inputs, credit and markets, and lets members share benefits in proportion to how much they participate in the business.
What you need to qualify
- At least 10 individual producers, or 2 or more producer institutions, or a combination, as members
- At least 5 directors (and up to 15), with at least one resident in India
- Main objects connected to the activities of primary producers, such as production, harvesting, processing, procurement and marketing of members’ produce

Common questions
Who can be a member of a producer company?
Primary producers, such as farmers, dairy producers, fishermen, weavers and artisans, and producer institutions. The company must have at least 10 individual producers or 2 producer institutions.
How is a producer company different from a cooperative society?
A producer company is registered under the Companies Act and follows company law, with limited liability and a clear compliance framework, while a cooperative follows cooperative law. Many groups prefer a company for its flexibility.
Can a producer company become a public company?
No. A producer company is treated as a company of its own kind and cannot become a public limited company.
What are the minimum directors?
At least 5 directors, with at least one resident in India.
Do you help with registration only?
We also help with the follow-up needs, such as GST, licences, accounting, annual filings and income tax.
