GST Advisory & Compliance

Registrations, return filings, input tax credit reconciliation, refund claims and litigation support — managing the recurring GST compliance cycle for businesses operating across multiple states, sectors and trade flows.

GST compliance and tax documentation review
OVERVIEW

GST compliance that keeps pace with how the law actually changes.

GST compliance has become one of the most operationally demanding parts of the Indian tax calendar — frequent rate and rule changes, multi-state registration requirements for businesses operating across India, and an increasingly active enforcement environment around input tax credit and e-invoicing.

Our GST Advisory & Compliance practice handles registrations, returns and advisory on an ongoing basis, and represents clients in litigation and refund matters when disputes arise — for businesses ranging from manufacturing and e-commerce to SEZ-linked and export-oriented entities.

Coverage
  • GST registration — including multi-state and SEZ registrations
  • Monthly, quarterly and annual return filings
  • Input tax credit reconciliation and optimisation
  • Refund claims for exports and inverted duty structures
  • Departmental audits, notices and litigation support
REGISTRATION & RETURN COMPLIANCE

The recurring compliance cycle, managed end to end.

For businesses operating across multiple states, GST compliance means managing multiple registrations and return cycles in parallel — each with its own reconciliation requirements against books, e-way bills and e-invoices.

  • GST registration — regular, composition, SEZ, and casual taxable person registrations
  • Monthly return filing (GSTR-1, GSTR-3B) across multiple state registrations
  • Annual return and reconciliation statement filing (GSTR-9, GSTR-9C)
  • E-invoicing and e-way bill compliance review
  • Input tax credit reconciliation against GSTR-2B
ADVISORY & STRUCTURING

Getting the GST treatment right before a transaction, not after.

New product lines, cross-state movement of goods, import-export transactions, and arrangements involving related parties or SEZ units all carry GST implications that are far easier to get right at the design stage than to correct retrospectively.

  • GST applicability and rate classification advisory for new products/services
  • Place of supply and reverse charge mechanism advisory
  • GST implications of cross-border and import-export transactions
  • SEZ and export-oriented unit GST compliance advisory
  • GST due diligence for transactions and reorganisations
LITIGATION & REFUNDS

Representation when the department disagrees.

GST refund claims — particularly for exporters and businesses with an inverted duty structure — and responses to departmental notices and audits require both technical accuracy and procedural discipline. We represent clients through this process, from initial notice response through to appellate proceedings where needed.

  • Refund claims for export of goods/services and inverted duty structure
  • Response to departmental notices, audits and scrutiny
  • Appeals before GST appellate authorities
  • Advance ruling applications
