Frequently Asked Questions

Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Vijayawada?
ROC Vijayawada has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Andhra Pradesh. 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 Andhra Pradesh?
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 Andhra Pradesh. Stamp duty on the share purchase agreement itself follows the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (A.P. Amendment).
Do you have an office in Vijayawada?
No. Vijayawada is served remotely from our Chennai head office, about 462 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.
What risks and missing information should I investigate before investing or buying?
Check the quality of earnings (whether reported profit is real and repeatable), revenue recognition, working capital and debt-like items, related-party transactions, and cash controls. Check tax exposure: pending demands, notices and the state of GST and TDS compliance. Check the company’s legal history: share capital and cap table, ROC filings, FEMA reporting for any foreign investment, licences, key contracts and litigation. Look for forensic red flags such as round-tripping or unexplained cash. Ask for anything that is missing, because missing records are themselves a finding. You receive an issues register ranked by severity, with the effect on price and the protections to negotiate, such as indemnities and conditions before closing.
