♦ Indian Business  Environment

♦ Branch Office Registration in India

♦ Administration Services in India

First established in 1995 in London we spread our wings to China in 2004 and India in 2007, we are now a leading Indian firm with associated offices and affiliates in many jurisdictions, employing business consultants, accounting and audit professionals, lawyers and general corporate administrators. We differ from conventional firms in the following ways:

Through our Mumbai based office we find and provide solutions. We will clarify our clients on the benefits and disadvantage of investing in India. We provide detailed and custom made strategies for FDI into India. The regulatory and tax environment in India and its double taxation treaty partner countries change rapidly, and certain industries and business models may be better off in one location rather than another. Sometime it is an advantage to route the investment not directly from the Investors country but via a double taxation treaty country. We are aware of this and can provide business cases and research tied to your specific business needs without the restraints of being a one jurisdiction firm.

All our staff across offices speak and write fluent English. The majority of our clients are from the US, Germany, Switzerland, the UK and India. Whether it is an acquisition, a merger, an outright purchase of a local company, or the creation of a brand new company you do have in mind, do contact us for a non committal discussion. Our local staff in all locations will speak their national language as well as English and many will speak some European languages too.

We spend a considerable time in keeping ourselves up-to-date whilst also focusing on retaining good governmental relations and maintain regular contact with ministerial officials in all the countries we conduct business in. This activity has two advantages: First, it gives us quick access to the regulatory investment environment and any proposed legal and tax changes prior to them becoming public. Second, this provides us with an instant point of contact in case of clarification or assistance in a particular case.

Once the theoretical cornerstones have been laid and agreed with by clients we are there to ensure a smooth and time consistent set up of operations in India. We assist you in making your staff and initial advisors feel at home, we assist in finding suitable premises in India, we assist in relocating staff, finding first employees and minimizing the effects of Indians love for rubber stamps and red tape of Indian bureaucracy.
