FAQ.
Here’s everything you need to know about working with us.
Can’t find your answer?
If you have questions or need more details, feel free to reach out.
- Don't panic, but don't sit on it either — there's a statutory timeline to respond.
- ASMT-10 usually flags a mismatch the department has spotted between your returns — GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, and the auto-populated GSTR-2B.
- Before drafting a reply, I reconcile the actual numbers first, because a vague or defensive response without the reconciliation behind it tends to invite more questions.
- This is one of the most common queries I get.
- Your GSTR-3B credit should generally be reconciled with what's showing in GSTR-2B, which is based on your suppliers' filings.
- A mismatch is often not your error at all — it may be because a vendor filed late or filed incorrect details.
- It's worth reconciling this every month rather than waiting for a notice, because by then the gap can be a year or two old and much harder to trace.
- Yes, in almost all cases, a valuation is required for a share issue or transfer involving a non-resident.
- FEMA pricing guidelines require the valuation to be carried out by a SEBI-registered merchant banker or a Chartered Accountant, depending on the method used.
- The required valuation documentation is generally submitted to the RBI through the authorised dealer (AD) bank.
- It depends heavily on your entity structure and the nature of your business.
- If you're a private limited company, ROC filings and annual returns are non-negotiable.
- GST registration and returns become relevant once the applicable turnover and registration conditions are met.
- TDS becomes relevant when you're paying salaries or making certain vendor payments covered by the applicable provisions and thresholds.
- Rather than relying on a generic checklist, it's better to map the compliance requirements against your actual business, entity structure, transactions, and turnover.
- Director disqualification can arise where a company has failed to file its financial statements or annual returns for the prescribed period, or in certain other circumstances specified under the Companies Act.
- Once disqualified, the director may be restricted from being appointed or reappointed as a director in the relevant company or other companies for the prescribed period.
- The consequences can be significant, so the underlying filing defaults and applicable provisions should be reviewed before taking corrective action.
- A director putting in their own funds, along with the required declaration that the money has not been borrowed from another person, is generally treated differently from a deposit.
- Money received from shareholders can be subject to the deposit rules unless a specific exemption applies.
- Certain exemptions may apply in specific circumstances, such as funds received from relatives of directors in a private company, subject to the applicable conditions.
- Proper documentation, declarations, disclosures, and compliance with the applicable provisions are important to avoid potential penal consequences under the Companies Act.
- I help businesses handle GST notices such as ASMT-10 by first reconciling the underlying figures and identifying the actual reason for the mismatch before preparing a response.
- I also assist with GSTR-2B and GSTR-3B reconciliation to identify ITC differences, including mismatches arising from supplier filing errors or delays.
- For transactions involving non-residents, I assist with the applicable valuation and FEMA compliance requirements for share issues or transfers.
- The objective is to ensure that the numbers, documentation, and regulatory filings are properly aligned so that compliance issues can be addressed before they become bigger problems.
