Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Delhi?
ROC Delhi has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Delhi. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
What is the GST state code for Delhi?
The GST state code for Delhi is 07; it forms the first two digits of every GSTIN registered in the state, and notices and appeals are handled by the Delhi administration with writ remedies before the Delhi High Court.
Do you have an office in Delhi?
No. Delhi is served remotely from 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.
I received a GST DRC-01 notice. What is being alleged, what dates matter, and what evidence should I prepare?
DRC-01 is the summary of a show cause notice that proposes a demand of tax, interest and penalty. Read the notice itself, not only the summary: it states the tax periods, the grounds (for example a mismatch between GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B, ineligible input tax credit or short payment) and the amounts. Dates that matter: the reply deadline stated in the notice; whether the notice was issued within the time limit under section 73 or 74 (for periods up to 2023-24) or section 74A (from 2024-25); and the date of any earlier DRC-01A intimation. Prepare a reconciliation of the department’s figures with your returns and books, invoices and payment proof for each disputed item, and earlier correspondence. File the reply in Form DRC-06 and ask for a personal hearing; tax you accept can be paid through DRC-03 before the order.
What does GST Notice Reply in Delhi cost, and what is not included?
Reply to a notice (ASMT-10, DRC-01A, DRC-01) from ₹15,000 + 18% GST. Appeal under section 107 from ₹20,000 + 18% GST. The statutory pre-deposit, any tribunal fees and amounts paid under protest are the taxpayer's. Personal hearing attendance is included for the reply or appeal; a further appeal or writ is a separate engagement. No outcome is guaranteed.

GST DRC-01 Notice Reply in Delhi (NCT)

DRC-01 notices to Delhi (NCT)-based GSTINs (state-code 07) are the primary trigger for Section 73 (non-fraud) or Section 74 (fraud) demand proceedings. Appellate route: GSTAT state bench, with cross-cutting income-tax interactions escalating to ITAT Delhi (multiple benches — largest in India).

The economic mix of Delhi (NCT) runs across wholesale trade (Naya Bazar, Khari Baoli, Old Delhi), media & advertising, retail & FMCG HQs — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Patparganj Industrial Area, Okhla Industrial Area. On the AD-Bank side, Delhi is the second-largest AD-I market after Mumbai; every foreign bank operates a dedicated mid- and large-corporate desk in Connaught Place / Nehru Place / Aerocity.

Delhi hosts ITAT's principal bench, the High Court bench with the largest TP-litigation docket, and the headquarters of the CBDT, DGFT, MCA and Competition Commission of India — making it the regulatory and judicial centre of gravity for company law in India.

Distinguishing Section 73 vs 74 — Penalty Differential

For Delhi (NCT)-based taxpayers, the section-categorisation contest is often the most consequential first-line defence.

Common DRC-01 Allegations in Delhi (NCT)

Recurring DRC-01 themes for Delhi (NCT)-based GSTINs in financial & professional services and IT/ITES (Connaught Place, Nehru Place, Saket DLF): ITC denial under Section 16(2)(c) / Rule 36(4) mismatch, classification disputes, RCM short-payment, e-way bill non-compliance, and SEZ/EOU zero-rated documentation gaps. Each carries a distinct evidentiary defence.

Engagement — Delhi (NCT) Coverage

Virtual Auditor's GST DRC-01/DRC-07 practice covers notice analysis, reply drafting, personal hearing representation, GSTAT appeals, writ petitions through the Delhi (NCT) High Court, and end-to-end demand-defence — anchored by named-partner ownership. Free 30-minute consultation: +91 99622 60333.
