FSSAI Food Licence
Anyone who manufactures, stores, transports, sells or even repackages food in India needs an FSSAI licence, including cloud kitchens and home bakers selling online. Which of the three levels you need is decided by turnover and by whether you operate across state lines — picking the wrong one means reapplying.

Who actually needs GST registration — and who is better off registering anyway
The turnover threshold is only one of several triggers. Plenty of businesses below it are still legally required to register, and some above it choose to register early for reasons that have nothing to do with the law.

Priced before we start
Every service on this site carries its fee. You get a written scope and a number before any work begins, and the invoice matches it.
Two people on every filing
Nothing goes to a department on one pair of eyes. A second professional reviews the return before it is submitted.
A person, not a ticket
You get a named associate who knows your file, reachable on WhatsApp, not a queue and a different voice every call.
We watch the calendar
Once you are on our books we track your due dates and reach out before the deadline, not after the late fee.
