Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to prepare a DPR for Bihar?
Typical turnaround is 5-10 working days from receipt of promoter KYC, market data and machinery quotes. Bank-format conversion (PNB/SBI/Canara) adds 2-3 days.
Will the DPR be accepted by my bank in Bihar?
Yes. Our DPR templates are aligned to PNB-59 / SBI-CMA-2018 / Canara-Bank / HDFC-MSME / ICICI-MSME loan-appraisal formats and are routinely accepted by appraising branches across Bihar.
Do you draft the DPR for PMEGP / MUDRA / Stand-Up India?
Yes — all three. PMEGP uses the KVIC online portal format; MUDRA uses simplified format for Shishu/Kishore and bank-format for Tarun; Stand-Up India needs detailed projections per SIDBI prescribed format.
What is DSCR and why is it critical?
Debt Service Coverage Ratio = (PAT + Depreciation + Interest) / (Interest + Principal). Banks typically require avg DSCR ≥ 1.50 and minimum DSCR ≥ 1.20. Sub-optimal DSCR is the single largest reason for sanction-letter conditionality or rejection.
Do you provide DPR services in Bihar?
Yes. Virtual Auditor scopes DPR engagements for Bihar-based promoters from our offices in Chennai, Bengaluru and Mumbai with secure document-room access. Call +91 99622 60333.
What documents are needed to prepare the DPR?
Promoter KYC (PAN, Aadhaar, photo), educational/experience proof, project location proof, machinery quotations, raw-material supplier quotes, market study notes, draft expected sales orders/LOIs, and the bank's loan-application form copy.
Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Bihar?
ROC-cum-OL Patna has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Bihar. 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 Bihar?
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 Bihar. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (Bihar Amendment).
Do you have an office in Bihar?
No. Bihar is served remotely from our Chennai head office: 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.
What project report does my lender or scheme require, and what evidence will support it?
Use the format the lender or scheme asks for: banks usually want a detailed project report with CMA data, and schemes such as PMEGP, Stand-Up India or CGTMSE-backed loans have their own formats and eligibility conditions. The report sets out the project cost, the means of finance, five-year projections, debt-service coverage, break-even and sensitivity to key assumptions. The evidence behind it is supplier quotations, land or lease documents, approvals and licences, the promoters’ KYC and past financial statements. The decision to lend or to grant a subsidy rests with the bank or the scheme authority; a well-supported report improves the case but cannot guarantee approval.

Detailed Project Report (DPR) for Government Schemes in Bihar
For Bihar-based promoters preparing a DPR, the operationally relevant anchors are: corporate filings at ROC Patna, GSTIN state-code 10, ITAT jurisdiction at ITAT Patna, and the Bihar state-level capex/interest subsidy regime that often layers on top of central PMEGP/MUDRA/CGTMSE/NABARD AIF schemes.

On the AD-Bank side, SBI Patna lead bank with PNB, Bank of Baroda also providing AD-I services; FEMA filings of any complexity often referred to Kolkata AD branches.

CMA Discipline Calibrated to Bihar Sector Cycles
Bihar-region CMA data discipline anchors holding-norm benchmarks against actual peer cycles in agro-processing (rice, maize, makhana — Bihar accounts for 85% of India's makhana output) and leather (Muzaffarpur) — not RBI generic templates.
