The greatest aspects of a cooperative society and a private limited business are combined to create a producer company, which provides member producers with collective benefits inside a strong and clear legal framework. To register as a Producer Company in India, a business must first be incorporated as a Private Limited Company. To be legally recognised, these businesses must be incorporated under names that finish in "Producer Company Limited." A Producer Company may be established in India by parties engaged in Primary Production operations.
Separate Legal company: Because the Producer Company is a separate legal company, it is able to make purchases and incur obligations in its own name. The lenders of the corporation owe the directors nothing.
Investments and Loans: The government has passed a unique provision for lending money to the producer members since the producer company is made up of people or organisations that produce food or other goods for the first time. NABARD Bank was created specifically for this objective to offer producers and farmers financial support through NABARD Loan.
Tax advantages: Depending on the type of agriculture that a producer firm engages in, there are specific tax advantages and exemptions.
Limited liabilities: In accordance with the Companies Act of 2013, directors and shareholders are protected from certain types of liabilities. Therefore, the director's assets are secured and cannot be taken by banks or government agencies in the event that the firm experiences financial difficulties.
Deposits accepted: A registered producer company may accept deposits in the form of one-time or recurring deposits. The firm may also make lower-interest loans to its members and farmers.
Even if their income does not go above the tax level, the following people are still allowed to pay their income tax return:

The table below lists a comprehensive collection of these documents.
