What Maharashtra compliance is required for Company Registration?
In Pune, the primary state compliance requirements are: Maharashtra Shops and Commercial Establishments Act 1948 (amended 2017) requires registration within 60 days of commencement. Maharashtra Professional Tax: gross salary up to ₹7,500/month = ₹0; ₹7,501–₹10,000 = ₹175/month; above ₹10,000 = ₹200/month for 11 months and ₹300 in February (total ₹2,500/year). irpr.network manages all state-level registrations and filings as part of the Company Registration service.
What entity type should a foreign company use to set up in India?
For most GCCs, a Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) under the Companies Act 2013 is the standard structure. It allows 100% FDI under the automatic route for IT/ITES, provides limited liability, and enables ESOP issuance.
How long does company registration take in India?
SPICe+ processing typically takes 7–10 working days from filing. With DIN, DSC, and name availability pre-work, the full incorporation timeline is 3–5 weeks.
Is a resident director mandatory?
Yes. Section 149(3) of the Companies Act 2013 requires at least one director to have stayed in India for at least 182 days in the previous calendar year. irpr.network provides a nominee resident director service.
What is the FC-GPR filing?
FC-GPR (Foreign Currency Gross Provisional Return) is a mandatory RBI filing within 30 days of share allotment when a foreign company invests equity in an Indian company. Delay attracts compounding penalties.
