Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Punjab?
ROC Chandigarh has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Punjab. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
What is the GST state code for Punjab?
The GST state code for Punjab is 03; it forms the first two digits of every GSTIN registered in the state, and notices and appeals are handled by the Punjab administration with writ remedies before the Punjab and Haryana High Court (Chandigarh).
Do you have an office in Punjab?
No. Punjab 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.
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.

GST Compliance in Punjab — Local Touchpoints

For GSTINs registered in Punjab, the operating context is: GST state-code 03, jurisdiction served from Punjab CGST/SGST commissionerate, appellate route via GSTAT (state bench) and tax-tribunal escalation under ITAT Chandigarh / Amritsar for cross-cutting income-tax interactions. Stamp-duty schedule on related instruments: ₹500 fixed on MOA + 0.15% on AOA (Punjab Stamp Schedule). Profession-tax position: Up to ₹2,400 p.a. under Punjab State Development Tax Act 2018 (operates as professions tax).

The economic mix of Punjab runs across auto-components (Ludhiana — JCT, Hero, Munjal), agro-processing (basmati rice, dairy), hosiery & woollen (Ludhiana) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Ludhiana Industrial Park, IT/ITES SEZ Mohali. On the AD-Bank side, strong AD-I cluster at Chandigarh/Mohali and Ludhiana; HDFC, ICICI, Axis run dedicated woollen-export desks; rice exporters anchor at SBI/PNB Amritsar/Patiala.

Ludhiana is India's bicycle and woollen-knitwear capital (about 90% of domestic bicycle output) and the Industrial & Business Development Policy 2022 offers 100% net SGST reimbursement and stamp-duty exemption.
