Private Limited Company Name Approval is the process of obtaining approval from the Registrar of Companies (ROC) for the proposed name change of a Private Limited Company. The proposed new name must comply with the guidelines set by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) and must not resemble the name of an existing company or trademark.
 

• Desirable Name: 
  The proposed name of a Private Limited Company should be desirable and not offensive. It should not violate the provisions of the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act, o1950. It should also not be similar or identical to the name of any existing company or trademark.
   
• Test for Similarity: 
  The ROC conducts a test for the similarity between the proposed name and the names of other existing companies or trademarks. The proposed name should not be too similar to any existing name, as it may lead to confusion and create legal issues.
   
• Names that require approval from other authorities: 
  Certain names, such as those that contain words like "Insurance", "Bank", "Stock Exchange", "Venture Capital", or "Mutual Fund", require approval from the relevant regulatory authorities before they can be used as the company name.
