Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Vadodara?
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.
Which ITAT bench hears appeals from Vadodara?

Do you have an office in Vadodara?

Which return and disclosures apply to me, and what records must be reconciled before filing?
The return form depends on who you are and your income: salaried individuals with simple income, individuals with capital gains or foreign assets, businesses and professionals, firms and LLPs, companies, and trusts each use a different form, and residents must report foreign assets and income. Before filing, reconcile your Annual Information Statement (AIS), Form 26AS and TDS certificates with your own records: salary, interest, dividends, capital gains statements from brokers, rent, and any business books. The due date depends on whether your accounts must be audited. We tell you which form applies, prepare the computation, check it against the AIS, and file only after you approve it (the Income-tax Act, 1961 for tax years up to 2025-26; the corresponding provisions of the Income-tax Act, 2025 from tax year 2026-27).
