Lets say I create saas application after how many months/years I should register as a company/startup business? Or should I only register after business crosses specific monthly recurring revenue?

Just register the business and use it for all of your products. You can claim tax breaks for a lot of stuff that you use while you work on your application.

Any resources or info which I can refer on how to claim tax while working on application?
What if for first few months 6-12months I donโ€™t register then is that fine? I think if it is not crossing some target MRR value then whats the point in registeration? Also the process of registration is not that straightforward right

You can register under 10k within 2 weeks and itโ€™s pretty straight forward

Registering a company is easy. Closing it down = a whole world of pain. Don't do it unless you are serious about starting a business. You can claim the same benefits via registering as a sole proprietorship as well (takes 1 day in most states & get an agent online). I would register a company early ONLY if I want to limit liability (i.e. you are doing something risky and might get sued). But in India, even if you are a Pvt Ltd company, you'd get arrested, etc. if something goes wrong in your company. So not a lot of benefit of registering it earlier.

Registering early is not good option but then when should I start that process? After crossing some specific target value of MRR consistently?

@echoing-computer-87366 You will know when you need to register ๐Ÿ™‚ If you are familiar with front-end stacks -- it is like Redux/Centralized State containers -- you will know when it is time to include them because you will start hitting boundaries.

@echoing-computer-87366 one route is to first open a sole-prop (faster, cheaper, easier to maintain) and start working on your idea. when time to scale you can convert it to pvt ltd or open a new pvt ltd

How much time/effort required to convert from sole-prop to Pvt Ltd ??
