Greenfield manufacturing subsidiary formation
Incorporation, factory registration and licensing, State Pollution Control Board consents and sector approvals, coordinated so the plant is ready to operate as early as possible.
Market Entry & Compliance Advisory for Manufacturing Companies
Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes, SEZ benefits and competitive costs make India a leading destination for manufacturers. We handle the regulatory, tax and financial work so you can focus on production.
Manufacturing in India: the regulatory framework
Make in India and the PLI programmes have made India attractive for electronics, pharmaceuticals, automobiles, textiles and more, with simpler factory licensing and tax incentives for new manufacturing entities.
Even so, the interaction of factory laws (now the OSH Code), environmental clearances, land rules, SEZ rules, customs and GST makes manufacturing the most regulation-intensive sector for foreign investors.
Services for manufacturing companies
SEZ and MSME structure advisory
SEZ units can benefit from customs duty and IGST exemptions on procurement; MSME registration brings priority-sector lending and procurement preferences. We advise on location and structure to use the incentives available for your activity.
PLI scheme applications
PLI schemes pay cash incentives on incremental sales to qualifying manufacturers in sectors such as mobile phones, electronics, pharmaceuticals, food processing and solar modules. We prepare applications, document qualifying investment and production, and liaise with the nodal ministry.
Customs duty and import advisory
HS-code classification, advance authorisations for duty-free inputs, the EPCG scheme for machinery imports, and rules of origin for FTA benefits.
GST for manufacturing
Registration in several states, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filings, ITC reconciliation and annual returns, plus advice on job work, inter-unit transfers and deemed exports.
