Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Kolkata?
ROC Kolkata has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in West Bengal. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
What is the GST state code for West Bengal?

Do you have an office in Kolkata?
No. Kolkata is served remotely from our Chennai head office, about 1,633 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 GST registrations, filings or advisory services fit my business, and how will you manage them?
It depends on your turnover, where you supply from and what you sell. Most businesses need registration once turnover crosses the threshold (generally ₹40 lakh for goods and ₹20 lakh for services, lower in some states), or earlier if they make inter-state supplies of goods or sell through e-commerce operators. After that come monthly or quarterly returns (GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B), an annual return where it applies, and a monthly reconciliation of input tax credit with GSTR-2B. Exporters add a Letter of Undertaking and refund claims, and a business that receives a notice needs a reply or an appeal. We set up a filing calendar, collect your sales and purchase data each month, reconcile and file after your approval, and track notices on the GST portal.
