Overview
Empower your farming community by registering a Farmer Producer Company (FPC) in Maharashtra. Get government recognition, collective bargaining power, funding access, and tax benefits. Founders First simplifies the entire producer company registration process from document preparation to MCA filings. What is a Producer Company? A Producer Company is a special type of company registered under the Companies Act, 2013, specifically formed by a group of farmers, producers, or agriculturists to enhance income and productivity. It combines the benefits of a private limited company with the advantages of a cooperative society.
Benefits For Everyone!
Legal Recognition
A registered FPC enjoys corporate legal status, which allows it to enter into legal contracts, obtain institutional credit, and own assets. This legal entity status enhances trust among buyers, banks, and government bodies.
Collective Bargaining Power
Farmers pool their resources and products, increasing their negotiation strength for better prices on inputs (like seeds, fertilizer) and outputs (market sales).
Access to Government Funding & Schemes
Recognized FPCs are eligible for schemes from SFAC, NABARD, and other central/state agencies offering credit guarantees, subsidies, and equity grants.
Tax Benefits
Income from core agricultural activities may be exempt from tax under prevailing income tax laws.
Limited Liability
Members’ liability is limited to the unpaid amount of their share capital; their personal property is protected from business losses or legal claims.
Perpetual Succession
The company remains in existence despite any change in membership or leadership.
Professional & Transparent Management
With a governing board and appointed directors, FPCs benefit from planned governance and operational efficiency.

Must Know !
Common Mistakes to Avoid During Producer Company Registration
- 1. Not Verifying Member Eligibility - Ensure all members are actively involved in agricultural activities—failure to prove this can lead to rejection.
- 2. Using Duplicate/Similar Company Names - Always conduct a name availability check to avoid delays.
- 3. Incorrect MOA/AOA Drafting - Poorly drafted objectives or inconsistent clauses can cause MCA rejections.
- 4. Mismatch in Documents - Ensure address proofs, PAN, and Aadhaar details are consistent across all documents.
- 5. Inadequate Capital Planning - Even though there's no fixed minimum, too little capital may limit future funding eligibility.
- 6. Lack of Post-Registration Planning - Failing to open a business bank account or register for GST can restrict company operations.
- 7. Ignoring DIN/DSC Validity - Apply early and ensure all DSCs and DINs are valid at the time of submission.
- 8. Skipping Professional Help - The registration process involves technical and legal nuances—professional support reduces errors.
