Setting up an India GCC from Japan
What a finance team in Japan should plan for when opening a Hyderabad entity, and how we handle it.
Matching year-ends
Many Japanese groups also close on 31 March, which simplifies alignment with India's financial year.
J-GAAP or IFRS reporting
We prepare group-framework adjustments and monthly packs in the format your head office uses.
Treaty review
We review the India–Japan tax treaty position for service fees and royalties paid to Japan.
Clear communication
Agreed overlap hours with Japan time and written monthly reviews so nothing is lost in handoffs.
The same core in every country
Whatever the parent's location, the India entity needs the same monthly core: books, TDS, GST, EDF, payroll, Registrar and FEMA filings. See all services and the compliance calendar.
General information, not tax advice. Treaty benefits depend on the facts and documents such as a tax residency certificate.
