Frequently Asked Questions

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

ROC Ahmedabad has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Gujarat. 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 Gujarat?

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 Gujarat. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Gujarat Stamp Act, 1958.

Do you have an office in Surat?

There is no local office. Service is coordinated by our Mumbai 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.

Does my investment event need FC-GPR reporting, and which records are required to complete it?

Form FC-GPR is needed when an Indian company issues equity shares, compulsorily convertible preference shares or debentures, or share warrants to a person resident outside India; it is filed on the RBI’s FIRMS portal within 30 days of allotment. A transfer of existing shares between a resident and a non-resident is reported in Form FC-TRS instead, within 60 days, and convertible notes, shares issued to non-resident employees and downstream investment have their own forms. Records needed: the bank’s KYC report on the remitter, the FIRC or proof of inward remittance, the FEMA valuation certificate (not more than 90 days old on the date of investment), the board resolution and list of allottees, and a company secretary’s certificate of compliance. A late filing can usually be regularised with a late submission fee.
