End-to-end support for foreign companies setting up and operating in India — from entity incorporation to ongoing compliance, payroll, FEMA, and transfer pricing.
What entity structure should a foreign company use in India?
It depends on your activity, investment size, and repatriation needs. A subsidiary (private limited company) is the most common choice for operational businesses. Branch offices suit companies doing project-based work. LLPs work for professional services. We help you evaluate trade-offs across compliance burden, tax implications, and FEMA requirements.
How long does it take to set up an Indian subsidiary?
Typically 6–10 weeks from filing to operational readiness. This includes DSC/DIN for directors, name reservation, ROC incorporation, PAN/TAN, bank account opening, and GST registration.
What is FEMA and why does it matter?
The Foreign Exchange Management Act governs all cross-border transactions involving India. Any foreign investment, profit repatriation, or intercompany transfer must comply with FEMA and RBI regulations. Non-compliance can lead to penalties and blocked transactions.
