With this, company registrations rose for a sixth straight month through June. However, the pace of increase in incorporations in June eased from 29% in May and almost 50% in April, which were, of course, aided by a favourable base effect.

The number of new LLPs that got registered in June stood at 7,534, against 6,362 a year earlier. In the June quarter, 23,068 LLPs got registered, up over 30% from a year before.
