Frequently Asked Questions
Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Madurai?
ROC Chennai (Chennai region) / ROC Coimbatore (Coimbatore region) 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 Madurai?
There is no local office. Service is coordinated by 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.
Which valuation rule applies to my transaction and period, including any historical assessment?
It depends on the transaction and the tax year. Share issues made up to 31 March 2024 may still be examined under the old angel-tax provision, section 56(2)(viib), with value under Rule 11UA(2): net asset value or a merchant banker’s DCF, at the company’s option. Share issues from 1 April 2024 are outside angel tax. Shares received for less than their fair market value are taxed in the recipient’s hands (section 56(2)(x)), using the formula in Rule 11UA(1), and the seller may be taxed on fair value under section 50CA. From tax year 2026-27, the Income-tax Act, 2025 and the Income-tax Rules, 2026 apply, so the corresponding provisions must be cited. We match each transaction to its period and rule and say who must sign the report.

Section 56(2)(viib) Practice Considerations in Madurai
For startups and closely held companies in Madurai, the Section 56(2)(viib) computation under Rule 11UA(2) interlocks with three local touchpoints: assessing-officer charge under ITAT Chennai (multiple benches) appellate jurisdiction, AD-bank reporting under Chennai is the third-largest AD-I market in India; Citi, HSBC, Standard Chartered, JP Morgan, plus all top private banks have dedicated GCC-FDI and auto-OEM desks, and the FEMA pricing regime where any non-resident subscriber is on the cap table. Stamp duty on the underlying allotment instruments follows the Madurai schedule — ₹200 on MOA + ₹300 fixed on AOA (Tamil Nadu Stamp Schedule — flat-fee, not capital-linked) — which adds up materially on large authorised-capital rounds.
Madurai is the second-largest city in Tamil Nadu after Chennai, hosting the Madurai bench of the Madras High Court, an ITAT camp bench, and the SIPCOT Industrial Park. Madurai's economy combines temple-tourism, textile (Sungudi GI saree), automotive ancillaries (TVS group origin) and agro-processing.
The economic mix of Madurai runs across engineering & pumps (Coimbatore), IT/ITES (OMR — Tidel Park, Sholinganallur, RMZ), automotive (Chennai-Sriperumbudur-Krishnagiri belt — over 35% of India's auto output) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Coimbatore Tidel Park, Nokia Telecom SEZ. On the AD-Bank side, Chennai is the third-largest AD-I market in India; Citi, HSBC, Standard Chartered, JP Morgan, plus all top private banks have dedicated GCC-FDI and auto-OEM desks.
Tamil Nadu is India's leading state for industrial output by volume — assembling more than 35% of India's passenger cars and trucks, contributing the largest leather exports, and hosting the second-largest IT/ITES workforce after Bengaluru.
Choice of Valuation Method — Madurai Sector Context
For companies in heavy-asset sectors prevalent in Madurai (e.g. automotive (Chennai-Sriperumbudur-Krishnagiri belt — over 35% of India's auto output)), an NAV cross-check is essential because the DCF and NAV will diverge, and the assessing officer typically anchors on whichever lower figure supports a Section 56(2)(viib) addition.
Recent Assessment Patterns under ITAT Chennai (multiple benches)
From our practice across ITAT Chennai (multiple benches) appeals, the most common reasons that 56(2)(viib) additions are made — and either survived or struck down on appeal — are: (a) inadequate documentation of the projected cash-flow assumptions (Income Tax Officer challenge under Rule 11UA(2)(b) explanation); (b) absence of comparable-company cross-check in the valuation report (a soft requirement under best-practice but heavily relied on by CIT(A)); (c) cap-table inconsistency with the FC-GPR filing where a non-resident is on the round — this triggers parallel FEMA enquiry and erodes the 56(2)(viib) defence.
FEMA Pricing Interaction for Madurai Cap Tables with Non-Residents
For Madurai-based companies, the AD-bank channel becomes the operational reporting loop: typically Chennai is the third-largest AD-I market in India.
