All business entities engaged in the sale of goods (traders and manufacturers) need to have a Value Added Tax (VAT) Registration, often called TIN Registration, once their annual turnover crosses around Rs. 5 lakh (Rs. 10 lakh in some states). The tax needs to be collected from consumers and deposited in a designated bank account to the state government. As VAT is decided by the state, the rates, due dates and even websites for filing returns differ by state. If you have operations in more than one location, you would, therefore, need to file returns separately. Return filing needs to be done once every month or once every quarter, depending on your location and turnover. Additionally, all states require a consolidated return to be filed at the end of the year. Vakilsearch can ensure that you never miss a VAT due date by setting reminders for the information you would need to provide and always filing your returns before the due date.
We will collect all the necessary information and documents (TIN Number, balance sheet, tax liability, state of operation) to prepare your returns. Once done the first time, our affiliate will then ensure that you are always reminded of the filing date so you don't end up paying penalties.
We will give you the opportunity to review the filing. One you approve it, we will file the returns with the state government. Upon successful completion of the process, we will mail the acknowledgment form to your registered email address.

The Registrar of Companies (RoC) across India expect applicant to follow a few naming guidelines. Some of them are subjective, which means that approval can depend on the opinion of the officer handling your application. However, the more closely you follow the rules listed below, the better your chances of approval. First, however, do ensure that your name is available.
Unique Component: In Flipkart Internet Private Limited, Flipkart is the unique component. Now, once taken, the name Flipkart will not be given to any other business within the suffix Internet or even related categories (E-commerce and Online Solutions, for example). But there is some subjectivity, too. Some RoCs may not even approve the name Flipkart Chemicals Private Limited, reasoning that the e-commerce brand Flipkart is too well-known. Similar sounding names would also be rejected (so no Flipkart).
Blacklist: Abbreviations, adjectives and generic words are rejected. So BBC or XYZ would be rejected, as would Good Quality Biscuits. The words bank, exchange and stock exchange, unless approved by RBI or SEBI, would also be rejected.
No Common Trademark: There should not be a registered trademark by the same name on the IP India website. If there is one, the name can only be approved if you are able to get a No-Objection Certificate from its owner authorising you to use it.
Descriptive Component: In Biocon Research Private Limited, the word 'Research' describes the business the company is into. You cannot have 'Research' in your name if you're, say, in the logistics or restaurant business.
All directors must provide identity and address proof, as well as a copy of the PAN Card (for Indian Nationals) and Passport (for foreign nationals). No-objection Certificate must be submitted by the owner of the registered office premises.
