RNI registration consultants help publishers a lot in order to get legal recognition in newspapers and magazines in India, as the procedure is quite lengthy and cumbersome. The registration of newspapers is conducted under the Registrar of Newspapers for India (RNI) rules that came under the Press and Registration of Books Act, which entails several legal, technical, industry, and standard compliances. It becomes difficult for new publishers to go through this complicated process due to documentation, verification, and legal compliance formalities. This is why consultation with an experienced RNI registration consultant is rather profitable because the publisher will be able to avoid time-consuming issues and risks connected with the registration process.

They've been very helpful in our registration with ICEGATE. It was a small thing with a small amount paid which somehow escalated to a very painful procedure. Never did they say "You've only paid so much. It's too much effort for us.".
Very pleased with their service. Prompt, professional and great communication. Definitely recommend. Special mention for Ms. Razia - she handled our case.
Professional Utilities is fully professional in their work, Rates are too low and genuine. Services and satisfaction are high so I highly recommended Professional Utilities.
They are one of the most genuine and reasonable people. I applied for lmpc certificate through them and they charged me a very nominal amount as compared to what other firms asked .
