#Compliance

56 articles

Compliance is the operational discipline that keeps an Indian taxpayer or company on the right side of statute — annual filings, periodic returns, registrations, audits, and the cascading consequences when any of these slip. The articles tagged Compliance on TaxSocial cover the deadlines, forms, fee mechanics and enforcement triggers that actually move the needle in practice: ROC annual filings, GST return cadence, MCA amnesty schemes, MSME-1 obligations, e-invoicing thresholds, and the interactions between them. Each piece is written from a practitioner's perspective with primary-source citations to the underlying Acts and notifications. Use this hub as the entry point when a client asks "what do we need to file, by when, and what happens if we miss it" — and follow the internal links from each article to the deeper sub-topics.

The RBI updated its NBFC FAQs on 15 September 2026 with a new section on companies that use no public funds and have no customers. For the family holding company that was technically an unregistered NBFC all along, it is the most useful thing the RBI has published in years.
