Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Projected Financials and a DPR?
Projected financials are the financial statements only (P&L, BS, CF). A DPR is the full project document that contains projected financials plus market study, technical feasibility, regulatory analysis, SWOT etc. Banks for working-capital often need only projections; for term-loan they need a full DPR.
Are your projections accepted by banks in Salem?
Yes. Our projections are issued in PNB-59 / SBI-CMA-2018 / Canara / HDFC / ICICI MSME formats and are routinely accepted by appraising branches in Salem. CA-certificate with UDIN is included where required.
How long do projections take to prepare?
3-5 working days for a 3-5 year projection from receipt of promoter inputs, historical financials (if existing business) and assumption guidance call. Bank-format conversion adds 1-2 days.
Can projections be used for investor pitch decks?
Yes. We deliver a "founder narrative" version (high-level summary slides) plus a "data-room" version (full Schedule III with assumption sheets) for investor diligence. Cap-table, runway, burn-rate, unit-economics modules included on request.
Will the projections work for visa applications?
Yes — UK Innovator/Founder, Canada SUV, USA E-2/EB-5, and Australia 188 visa applications routinely accept our CA-certified 5-year projections as financial-viability proof.
Do you serve Salem-based clients?
Yes. Virtual Auditor scopes projection engagements for Salem businesses from our offices in Chennai, Bengaluru and Mumbai. Secure data-room workflow; weekly status updates. Call +91 99622 60333.
Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Salem?
ROC Coimbatore has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Tamil Nadu. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
What stamp duty applies to a share transfer in Tamil Nadu?
Stamp duty on a transfer of shares is 0.015% of the consideration under Article 62 of Schedule I to the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, as amended with effect from 1 July 2020; the rate is the same in every state, including Tamil Nadu. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (T.N. Amendment).
Do you have an office in Salem?
No. Salem is served remotely from our Chennai head 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.
Breakeven and Operating Leverage
For Salem-region capex-heavy businesses (automotive (Chennai-Sriperumbudur-Krishnagiri belt — over 35% of India's auto output), IT/ITES (OMR — Tidel Park, Sholinganallur, RMZ), textiles (Tirupur — knitwear export capital, Coimbatore — yarn & engineering) clusters being the typical exemplars), high operating leverage means breakeven utilisation matters a lot — and we model the year-by-year breakeven trajectory rather than a static single-point.

Working-Capital Cycle Discipline
Working-capital cycle for Salem-based businesses is built bottom-up: debtor-days against Salem customer-payment behaviour (typically 75-105 days for B2B in automotive (Chennai-Sriperumbudur-Krishnagiri belt — over 35% of India's auto output)); creditor-days against Salem supplier-norm; inventory-days against Salem sector turn ratios.
