Wholly Owned Subsidiary Setup Services in India
End-to-end support for foreign parent companies establishing and maintaining a 100% owned Indian subsidiary—from structuring and incorporation to capital reporting and annual compliance.
Trusted Across Diverse Business Sectors
Build an Indian subsidiary that is ready to receive capital and commence business.
A wholly owned subsidiary gives the foreign parent a separate Indian legal entity for local contracts, employees and operations. The setup must integrate company law, FDI policy, banking, tax and governance.
Ownership & Capital Design
Define shareholder, nominee, authorised capital and funding arrangements.
Company Incorporation
Handle name, charter, directors, registered office and MCA filings.
FEMA & Share Reporting
Coordinate capital receipt, allotment and RBI reporting.
Compliance Activation
Set up auditor, books, registers, tax and annual filing calendar.
A subsidiary becomes operational only when incorporation, funding and compliance are sequenced correctly.
The certificate of incorporation is the first milestone, not the finish line.
Banking, share subscription, allotment, beneficial ownership, tax registrations and board actions follow in a defined sequence.
We manage this transition so the overseas finance and legal teams have one accountable India-side workstream.

What should you prepare for the initial review?
Keep parent approvals, Indian filings and banking evidence consistent.
Differences in names, addresses, authorised persons or capital terms can slow incorporation and reporting. A controlled document pack and filing calendar reduce rework and missed deadlines.
