Frequently Asked Questions
Corporate Advisory — Questions Answered
Common questions our clients ask about corporate advisory in India. If you have a different question, book a consultation with our team.
What is the difference between a private limited company and an LLP?
A Private Limited Company offers limited liability, enables easier equity fundraising and is preferred by investors. An LLP offers more operational flexibility, simpler compliance and different tax treatment. The right structure depends on your business model, funding plans and governance needs.
What ongoing compliance is required for a private limited company?
Annual compliance includes filing Form AOC-4 (financials) and MGT-7 (annual return), conducting board meetings, maintaining statutory registers, filing income tax returns and audit reports. Non-compliance attracts penalties and can trigger strike-off proceedings.
What should a shareholders agreement cover?
A well-drafted SHA should address equity ownership and vesting, board composition and voting rights, reserved matters, anti-dilution protections, information rights, transfer restrictions (ROFR/ROFO/drag/tag), exit mechanisms and dispute resolution.
Can a foreign company set up a subsidiary in India?
Yes. A WOS can be incorporated as a private limited company subject to FDI policies, sectoral caps and FEMA regulations. The process involves name approval, DIN/DSC, ROC filing and PAN/TAN. We handle the entire process including RBI filings where required.
What is a secretarial audit and is it mandatory?
A Secretarial Audit reviews compliance with corporate laws conducted by a Practising Company Secretary. Mandatory for listed companies, companies with paid-up capital ≥₹50cr, or turnover exceeding ₹250cr. We advise on compliance gaps and audit readiness.
