Udyam Registration in DelhiFree on the government portal, ₹499 if our Delhi office files it
Delhi runs on garments, printing and packaging, electrical goods and wholesale trade, and the Udyam base here is unusually trade-heavy. Chandni Chowk, Karol Bagh and Sadar Bazar file wholesale and retail registrations in volume, and the thing traders most need to be clear about is which benefits the certificate gives them and which it does not. Our Delhi office is at Arjun Nagar, near Krishan Nagar metro.

Udyam registration is free. Everywhere.
The Ministry of MSME states that Udyam registration is zero cost and that udyamregistration.gov.in is the only official portal. Registration, updates, corrections and cancellation are all free. Any amount charged by an intermediary, including ours, is a professional fee for advisory and filing work, not a government levy. A large share of page-one search results are private sites charging what they present as a government fee for a free process.

Which office does what for a Delhi MSME
No Delhi office issues a Udyam certificate. The filing runs centrally on udyamregistration.gov.in, validated against Aadhaar, PAN and GST data. What is local is everything around the certificate, and in Delhi two of those answers changed in 2026.
Delhi now has two Registrars of Companies, and which one is yours depends on your district. A single ROC Delhi used to cover the National Capital Territory and the State of Haryana. Since the reorganisation, ROC Delhi-I is headquartered in South Delhi and covers South, South West, New Delhi, South East and East Delhi, while ROC Delhi-II is headquartered in Central Delhi and covers Central, West, North, North West, North East Delhi and Shahdara. A Connaught Place registered office, in New Delhi district, sits with Delhi-I. A Karol Bagh address, in Central Delhi, sits with Delhi-II. We check the district before filing anything. Haryana has moved out of ROC Delhi to its own ROC at Chandigarh, so a Gurugram company no longer files in Delhi at all. The new offices became operational on 16 February 2026, and the Regional Director (NR-I) at New Delhi covers Delhi and Uttar Pradesh.
The Facilitation Council is the NCT's. A registered micro or small enterprise whose buyer pays late makes a reference under section 18 of the MSMED Act to the Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council constituted by the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi under section 20, filed through the MSME Samadhaan portal. The Council conciliates and then arbitrates. Unregistered suppliers do not get that route.
The Delhi cost layer around Udyam
Udyam is free, and in Delhi the layer around it is thinner than in most states.
There is no profession tax in Delhi. None. Delhi does not levy professional tax at all, so there is no enrolment certificate to take, no employer registration, no monthly deduction from salaries and no return to file. A Delhi employer with the same payroll as a Mumbai or Bengaluru employer simply does not have that ₹2,500 a year per person, or the filing that goes with it. This is not a concession you claim or a threshold you stay under; the levy does not exist here. If someone has quoted you for a Delhi profession tax registration, there is nothing to register for. If you also employ people in another state, see profession tax return.
Shops and establishments. Registration is under the Delhi Shops and Establishments Act, 1954, with the Labour Department of the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi at labour.delhi.gov.in, filed online through labourcis.nic.in. We confirm the current fee with the Department rather than quote one, because the published slabs are not reliable. Since 21 November 2025 factories sit under the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 rather than the Factories Act.
The MCD licence covers specified trades only. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi, unified since 2022, issues a Health Trade Licence, and it is required for specified trades only, not for every business. There are seven trade groups: eating establishments; boarding and lodging; manufacturing; storage and sale; hawking; entertainment and recreation; and miscellaneous. The current fee structure comes from Office Order No. PA/MHO/MCD/2025/D-193 dated 28 March 2025, effective 1 April 2025 for the period to FY 2027-28, and it builds in a 15% increase in the annual licence fee every three financial years. Applications go through etl.mcdonline.nic.in. We work out from your activity whether you are inside one of the seven groups at all, because most offices, agencies and trading businesses are not, and then give you the amount from the order.
Incorporation stamp duty, if you are also forming a company. Delhi charges ₹10 on INC-32, ₹200 on the memorandum and 0.15% of authorised capital on the articles, capped at ₹25,00,000. Because the articles duty is capital-linked, it rises as your authorised capital does, unlike West Bengal's flat ₹300.
What a Delhi business usually needs alongside Udyam
Udyam reads turnover from GST records and investment from income tax records, so those come first: GST registration and income tax return filing. Then registration under the 1954 Act (shop and establishment registration), and an MCD Health Trade Licence only if your activity falls in one of the seven groups (trade licence). If the enterprise is a company, private limited company registration covers the Delhi-I and Delhi-II side.
Come to the Delhi office
Regikart's Delhi office is at 04, Malook Singh Marg, Arjun Nagar, Krishan Nagar Metro Gate-1, Delhi 110051. You can drop documents there, or send them on WhatsApp at +91 70444 94804 or by email to [email protected]. Udyam needs nothing uploaded, so most Delhi clients never come in; the office matters more for the shops law, MCD and ROC work that sits around it. Our other offices are Kolkata (head office) and Bengaluru.
What Udyam registration means for a Delhi business
Udyam registration is the Government of India's online MSME registration under the MSMED Act, 2006, issuing a permanent Udyam Registration Number and an e-certificate to a micro, small or medium enterprise.
It is filed centrally on udyamregistration.gov.in and validated against Aadhaar, PAN and GSTN data. Investment is drawn from income tax records and turnover from GST records, which means the figures you declare must reconcile with what you have already filed.
For Delhi specifically, the certificate does two things. It makes the enterprise visible to buyers in Okhla Industrial Area, Naraina, Mayapuri, Wazirpur, Bawana, Narela and the Chandni Chowk and Karol Bagh trading markets, many of whom now ask for a Udyam Registration Number before they onboard a vendor. And it gives a micro or small enterprise standing before the Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council constituted by the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, so a late-paying buyer can be taken to conciliation and arbitration instead of to a civil court.
The composite classification test
| Category | Investment | Turnover |
|---|---|---|
| Micro | up to ₹2.5 crore | up to ₹10 crore |
| Small | up to ₹25 crore | up to ₹100 crore |
| Medium | up to ₹125 crore | up to ₹500 crore |
Ceilings revised with effect from 1 April 2025. The test is composite: an enterprise falls in a category only if both its investment and its turnover are within that category’s ceilings, and breaching either one moves it up. Export turnover is excluded from the turnover computation, and land and building are excluded from investment.
Who needs Udyam registration in Delhi
Delhi enterprises operating in Okhla Industrial Area, Naraina, Mayapuri, Wazirpur, Bawana, Narela and the Chandni Chowk and Karol Bagh trading markets are the core population.
What Regikart handles
Delayed payments and the Delhi Facilitation Council
A registered micro or small enterprise can make a reference under section 18 of the MSMED Act to the Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council constituted by the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, which conciliates and then arbitrates the dispute. Registration is what gives you access to that route; an unregistered enterprise has to sue in the ordinary way.
Documents required
The registration is Aadhaar-based and paperless: there are no document uploads. The portal validates against Aadhaar, PAN and GSTN data directly, which means the investment and turnover figures you declare must reconcile with what you have already filed.

Get the classification right the first time
The filing itself is quick. What costs businesses is a category computed wrongly, units registered as duplicate URNs instead of branches, or a registration that was never updated after the turnover moved. We compute the composite test from your filed ITR and GST returns before anything is submitted.
