Shop & Establishment Registration
State labour department registration for shops, offices and outlets.
Overview
Every commercial establishment — shop, office, hotel, restaurant or warehouse — must register under the applicable state Shops and Establishments Act, usually within thirty days of commencing business. The certificate is the primary proof of business existence for opening a current account, onboarding on marketplaces and applying for payment gateways. Jurisync files the application with your state's labour department and delivers the registration certificate.

What you actually pay
Two separate components: Jurisync's professional fee (fixed, shown below) and any government or statutory charge (billed at actuals, receipt shared with you).
| Jurisync professional fee | ₹1,999 |
|---|---|
| Government / statutory charges | ₹200 – ₹5,000 (state and headcount dependent) |
| Indicative timeline | 3–10 working days |
| Mode of delivery | Fully online across India — documents, approvals and final certificates through your Jurisync case workspace. |
Timelines depend on government portal processing and how quickly documents are provided; statutory approval always rests with the concerned authority.
