Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Visakhapatnam?

ROC Vijayawada has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Andhra Pradesh. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.

What stamp duty applies to a share transfer in Andhra Pradesh?

Stamp duty on a transfer of shares is 0.015% of the consideration under Article 62 of Schedule I to the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, as amended with effect from 1 July 2020; the rate is the same in every state, including Andhra Pradesh. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (A.P. Amendment).

Do you have an office in Visakhapatnam?

No. Visakhapatnam is served remotely from our Chennai head office, about 725 km away: documents are exchanged online, filings are made on the MCA, GST and income-tax portals, and meetings are held by video or at that office by appointment.

How do conversion terms, preferences and other rights affect this instrument's value?

Each right shifts value between classes of shareholders. A liquidation preference gives the holder money first on an exit; participation lets it share again after that; the conversion ratio or formula, anti-dilution protection, dividend rights, redemption terms and caps or discounts on notes change what the holder receives in each outcome. We read the actual terms in the articles and the shareholders’ agreement, model the outcomes (option-pricing, scenario-weighted or waterfall methods) and allocate the equity value across classes. The purpose matters: Ind AS fair value for the accounts, the FEMA rule that the conversion price or formula is fixed upfront at issue for foreign investors, and the Companies Act report for a preferential issue.
