Frequently Asked Questions

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

ROC Delhi has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Haryana. 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 Haryana?

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 Haryana. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (Haryana Amendment).

Do you have an office in Faridabad?

No. Faridabad is served remotely from our Mumbai office, about 1,347 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.

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 Faridabad

Appellate forum where ESOP perquisite is contested: ITAT Delhi / Chandigarh.

Faridabad's industrial estate (Sectors 24-31, Ballabgarh, IMT Faridabad) houses Escorts, JCB, Honda Cars (Greater Noida-Tapukara axis), and is part of the DMIC-NCR investment region. Faridabad falls under ROC Delhi and ITAT Delhi jurisdictions, making compliance functionally NCR-centric.

The economic mix of Faridabad runs across agro-processing (Karnal-Panipat), IT/ITES (Gurugram cyber-hubs), textiles (Panipat handloom & home-furnishing) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include KMP/KGP corridor, DLF Cyber City Gurugram. On the AD-Bank side, Gurugram is the second-largest FEMA market in India after Mumbai; HSBC, Citi, JP Morgan, DBS plus all top private banks run mid- and large-corporate AD desks.

Haryana hosts about 50% of India's passenger-car output and is the only state with no Professions Tax — combined with NCR proximity, this drives heavy FDI into Gurugram and Manesar.

Faridabad: compliance facts for ESOP valuation certificate

Faridabad is Haryana's largest industrial city — auto components, engineering, tractors and electrical goods across its sectors and the IMT — with a large MSME supplier base to the NCR auto industry. Company filings go to ROC Delhi, tax appeals to ITAT Delhi and writs to the Punjab and Haryana High Court. 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 Delhi; 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.
