1. Do you handle routine GST compliance and return filing?
Our practice is litigation-led. We primarily handle matters involving disputes, investigations, enforcement actions, and appellate proceedings.
Routine compliance and filing matters are not the focus of our practice.
2. When should one approach a lawyer in a GST matter?
Legal advice is often sought too late.
It is advisable to seek legal clarity when audits intensify, summons are issued, or a show cause notice is received, rather than after proceedings have escalated.
Early legal strategy often preserves options that may not be available later.
3. Do you represent clients during DGGI, DRI, or Customs investigations?
Yes. We advise and represent clients in matters involving investigations initiated by DGGI, DRI, Customs, and allied authorities, including assistance during audits, summons, and enforcement proceedings.
4. Will you appear before tax authorities and appellate forums?
Yes. Representation includes appearances before:
- Adjudicating authorities
- Commissioner (Appeals)
- GSTAT and CESTAT
- High Courts
- Supreme Court of India
5. Do you handle matters under Service Tax and Central Excise?
Yes. Legacy indirect tax regime matters, including Service Tax and Central Excise, are handled where disputes, investigations, or appellate proceedings are ongoing.
6. Do you advise on FEMA, PMLA, and other regulatory matters?
Yes. We advise and represent clients in select regulatory and economic law matters, including those arising under FEMA, PMLA, and proceedings involving regulatory authorities such as SFIO and RBI, particularly where such matters intersect with taxation, enforcement, or investigation risk.
7. Do you handle direct tax matters?
Direct tax matters are handled only in relation to investigations, searches, raids, or regulatory exposure, and not routine assessments or compliance work.
8. Do you represent corporates and high-net-worth individuals (HNIs)?
Yes. We regularly advise corporates, promoters, and high-net-worth individuals in matters involving regulatory scrutiny, enforcement actions, and high-stakes disputes.
