Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Patna?
ROC-cum-OL Patna has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Bihar. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
Which Shops and Establishments Act applies to a new business in Patna?
The Bihar Shops and Establishments Act, 1953 applies in Bihar, and professional tax is applicable. Virtual Auditor completes these registrations alongside incorporation.
Do you have an office in Patna?
No. Patna is served remotely from our Mumbai office, about 1,741 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 business structure fits my founders, funding plans and liability needs?
It depends on who will own the business and how it will be funded. A private limited company suits founders who plan to raise equity or offer ESOPs: it needs at least two directors and two shareholders, and liability is limited to the share capital. An LLP suits partners who will fund the business themselves: it cannot issue shares to investors or ESOPs. A One Person Company suits a single founder who is an Indian citizen resident in India, and can later convert into a private or public company. A sole proprietorship has no separate legal identity, so the owner’s liability is unlimited. After incorporation, a company must hold its first board meeting within 30 days (section 173), issue share certificates within two months (section 56(4)) and file the commencement declaration INC-20A within 180 days. We confirm the fit and quote the full cost, including government fees and stamp duty, before filing.

Patna-Specific Incorporation Context

For Pvt Ltd registration in Patna, the operationally relevant facts are: filings route to ROC Patna, the GSTIN state-code prefix is 10, and stamp duty on incorporation instruments follows the schedule — 0.10% of authorised capital on MOA, fixed ₹500 on AOA (Bihar schedule). Professional tax: applicable in Bihar at the state slab rates.a. under Bihar Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings & Employments Act 2011. Tax-tribunal jurisdiction sits with ITAT Patna, which becomes relevant for any post-incorporation Sec 56(2)(viib) or transfer-pricing dispute that escalates to ITAT.

Patna hosts ROC Patna, the Patna High Court principal bench, ITAT Patna, and the Bihta industrial area (foods, auto-component). The Patna-Buxar-Ghazipur Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor and the Patna Metro under construction create new logistics-FDI opportunities.

The economic mix of Patna runs across cement (Bhojpur, Rohtas), small-scale engineering, sugar — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include food processing parks at Begusarai and Muzaffarpur. On the AD-Bank side, SBI Patna lead bank with PNB, Bank of Baroda also providing AD-I services; FEMA filings of any complexity often referred to Kolkata AD branches.

Bihar's Industrial Investment Promotion Policy 2016 (renewed 2022) offers up to 30% capital subsidy for textile units and 15% for general manufacturing, plus reimbursement of stamp duty and electricity duty.

Stamp Duty Optimisation in Patna

In Patna, we typically scope authorised capital to cover the next 24-30 months of expected primary-issue activity, and structure subsequent rounds via further-issue resolutions rather than amendment-of-MOA filings — which would re-attract stamp duty and ROC fee at the 0.10% of authorised capital on MOA rate.
