How we work

Four steps, repeated every month for every branch

  1. Step 1

    Assess

    Every branch read against every Act that could apply to it, state by state.

  2. Step 2

    Plan

    A compliance set designed for your company, with exceptions branch by branch.

  3. Step 3

    File

    Returns, challans and renewals done before the due date, every month.

  4. Step 4

    Prove

    The challan or acknowledgement kept against each filing, and a monthly report.

Then the month turns, and it starts again.

FAQs

Questions we are often asked

Something else on your mind? Call +91-8976-420-111 and ask us directly.

Which laws do you handle?

The central labour Acts, from Provident Fund, ESI and Contract Labour to the Factories, Wages, Bonus, Gratuity and Maternity Benefit Acts, plus the state laws on shops and establishments, professional tax and labour welfare fund. We also track the move to the four Labour Codes as each state brings its rules into force.

We have branches in several cities. Can you cover all of them?

Yes. We have pan-India coverage, and compliance is set up branch by branch, because each state has its own rules and due dates. You see every branch in one place.

Do you audit our contractors?

Yes, and it is one of the things we do most. At a site, we check each contractor every month against a checklist, from PF and ESIC payments to registers, licences and minimum wages. The report scores the site, shows each contractor's record, and works out the amount to hold from each contractor's bill until the gaps are closed.

How do we know what has been filed?

Through your client login. Every filing for every branch is there with its due date, its status, and the challan or acknowledgement as proof. Monthly reports summarise it for management.

What happens if we receive a notice or an inspection?

We prepare the reply and the documents, and represent you at the hearing where needed. Because the records are kept month by month, the inspection pack is usually ready before the inspector asks.
