Frequently Asked Questions
Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Chhattisgarh?
ROC-cum-OL Bilaspur has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Chhattisgarh. 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 Chhattisgarh?
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 Chhattisgarh. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (C.G. Amendment).
Do you have an office in Chhattisgarh?
No. Chhattisgarh 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.
Which ESOP valuation do I need for accounting, employee tax or a cross-border purpose?
Each purpose needs its own value, on its own date. Ind AS 102 needs the fair value of each option at the grant date, using an option-pricing model such as Black-Scholes or binomial; the company expenses it over the vesting period and its auditor reviews it. Employee tax needs the fair market value of the share, not the option, on the exercise date: the excess over the exercise price is taxed as a perquisite (Section 17(2)(vi) of the Income-tax Act, 1961; the corresponding provision of the Income-tax Act, 2025 from tax year 2026-27). For unlisted shares that value must come from a SEBI-registered Category I merchant banker. Where there is a US parent, its plan may also need a separate 409A value.

ESOP Valuation Certificate in Chhattisgarh
Appellate forum where ESOP perquisite is contested: ITAT Raipur.
The economic mix of Chhattisgarh runs across aluminium (BALCO Korba), steel (Bhilai, Raipur belt — 15% of India's crude steel), coal & power (SECL) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Sirgitti Industrial Area Bilaspur, Naya Raipur SEZ. On the AD-Bank side, SBI Raipur and Axis/HDFC corporate desks at Raipur and Bhilai cover most ODI/FDI documentation; mineral-sector exporters often add Mumbai AD branches.
Chhattisgarh produces about a fifth of India's crude steel and a quarter of its coal output, and the Industrial Policy 2024-30 offers up to 100% net SGST reimbursement for mega units.
Chhattisgarh: compliance facts for ESOP valuation certificate
Chhattisgarh is a mineral and power economy: Bhilai steel, Korba's thermal plants, cement in the Raipur–Baloda Bazar belt and aluminium at Korba, with Raipur and Naya Raipur as the commercial and administrative centres. Mining contractors, steel re-rollers, rice millers and logistics companies dominate the private-sector base. The state got its own Registrar of Companies at Bilaspur, where the Chhattisgarh High Court also sits; NCLT matters go to the Cuttack bench and tax appeals to ITAT Raipur. For an ESOP valuation certificate this means the scheme is approved under section 62(1)(b) and Rule 12, with the company’s filings at ROC-cum-OL Bilaspur; the Ind AS 102 value is reviewed by the company’s auditor, and the employee-tax value on exercise of unlisted shares comes from a SEBI-registered merchant banker.
