Company Profile and Registration Details
Shri Narayani (Kumbakonam) Nidhi Limited is a public limited company registered under CIN: U74999TN2017PLN120244. It was incorporated in the year 2017 and operates with the primary objective of cultivating a habit of thrift and savings among its members. With this declaration, the company is now officially recognized under the Companies Act as a non-banking finance entity that is governed by Nidhi rules and regulations.
Registered Office Located in Tamil Nadu
The company has its registered office in Kumbakonam, a town in the Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu, known for its rich cultural heritage and financial institutions.
