1 The founder’s headache checklist
• 12+ MCA e-forms, 4 tax registrations, 3 bank letters – all before day 01 sales.
• Sector-cap rules buried across FEMA, DPIIT press-notes and RBI FAQs.
• “One-stop” agents who outsource every bit and vanish when a notice lands.
Beacon Filing was built by chartered accountants who fixed thousands of such rescue cases; now we stop the fire before it starts.
2 Five reasons Beacon Filing beats do-it-yourself or “cheap agent” routes
Pain point | What usually happens | Beacon Filing solution |
Paper mountains | Agents push physical signatures; delays add 8–10 days. | 100 % e‑KYC and Aadhaar‑based e‑sign; no couriers, no stamps. |
FEMA blind spots | Late Form FC‑GPR / FLA filings trigger USD 7 k+ RBI penalties. | Auto‑alerts; filings drafted and e‑filed within 30 days. |
Hidden extras | Low quote excludes stamp duty, PAN, GST, state licence. | Flat, all‑in price; itemised invoice lists every statutory fee. |
Fragmented advice | Bookkeeper blames CA, CA blames company‑secretary. | One team: CAs, CSs, lawyers on a single SLA. |
No compliance calendar | Missed Form AOC‑4 or GSTR‑3B → ₹ 100–200/day late fee. | Dashboard nudges 30‑7‑3‑1 days; single‑click approval & filing. |
