Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Hyderabad?
ROC Hyderabad has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Telangana. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
What is the GST state code for Telangana?
The GST state code for Telangana is 36; it forms the first two digits of every GSTIN registered in the state, and notices and appeals are handled by the Telangana administration with writ remedies before the Telangana High Court (Hyderabad).
Do you have an office in Hyderabad?
No. Hyderabad is served remotely from our Bengaluru office, about 599 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.
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 Hyderabad 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 Hyderabad

DRC-01 notices to Hyderabad-based GSTINs (state-code 36) 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 Hyderabad.

Hyderabad hosts HITEC City, Gachibowli, Madhapur and Nanakramguda — collectively the second-largest GCC concentration in India after Bengaluru (Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Apple all anchored). Genome Valley at Shamirpet is India's largest life-sciences cluster (about 30% of India's vaccine output). The TS-iPASS single-window grants industrial clearances within 15 working days.

The economic mix of the wider region around Hyderabad runs across pharmaceuticals & life sciences (Genome Valley — over 30% of India's vaccine output), aerospace & defence (TASL, Adani Aero), IT/ITES & GCC (HITEC City, Gachibowli) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Adibatla Aerospace Park, Pharma City Yadadri. On the AD-Bank side, Hyderabad is India's pharma-FEMA capital; Citi, HSBC, JP Morgan and top private banks run dedicated life-sciences ODI/FDI desks; TS-iPASS portal turn-arounds are among India's fastest.

Genome Valley produces about a third of the world's COVID-19 vaccine doses by volume, and Telangana's TS-iPASS framework guarantees industrial clearances within 15 working days.

Recurring DRC-01 themes for Hyderabad-based GSTINs in pharmaceuticals & life sciences (Genome Valley — over 30% of India's vaccine output) and IT/ITES & GCC (HITEC City, Gachibowli): 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.
