Every compliance, its due date, and who does it
What a foreign-owned Indian GCC (global capability centre) files every month, quarter, half-year and year, and who does each one. Exact dates are confirmed in your own compliance calendar, delivered during setup.
One rule
Everything in this calendar is done by Expertese within the monthly fee, except the audits. Statutory audit, tax audit and the GSTR-9C reconciliation statement are performed by an independent chartered accountant firm that your board appoints. We prepare the schedules and answer every auditor query. See who does what.
