There is no minimum paid-up capital requirement since the Companies Amendment Act 2015. You can start with any authorized capital. However, a higher authorized capital (e.g., ₹1 lakh or more) is recommended for credibility with banks and vendors.
Yes, NRIs and foreign nationals can be directors in a Private Limited Company.

Foreign directors need a valid passport and address proof from their country of residence.
The total cost includes professional fees + government fees (stamp duty varies by state) + DSC cost. Total typically ranges ₹8,000-₹15,000 depending on the state of registration and authorized capital amount. Rajasthan and Delhi tend to have lower stamp duty compared to states like Maharashtra and Karnataka.
Authorized capital is the maximum amount the company can issue shares for — it's defined in the Memorandum of Association. Paid-up capital is the actual amount received from shareholders against shares issued. For example, if authorized capital is ₹10 lakh, you can issue shares worth up to ₹10 lakh, but paid-up capital will be whatever amount shareholders actually pay.
You need a registered office address, which can be a residential address. Proof required includes: rent agreement with NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the landlord, or ownership/sale deed if self-owned. Additionally, a utility bill (electricity or water) of the premises not older than 2 months is required.
