What Chandigarh Businesses Usually Ask Us
How do Tricity businesses choose between Chandigarh, Mohali and Panchkula?
The choice changes more than the address. Chandigarh is a union territory charging UTGST, Mohali applies Punjab's state laws and Panchkula Haryana's, with different stamp duty, shops-act rules and GST registration in each, so these belong alongside rent in choosing a base for a business that serves the whole Tricity.
Can a Chandigarh company with directors abroad hold board meetings online?
Yes. Board meetings, including those approving the accounts, can be held by video conference under the Companies Act, 2013, and directors sign with digital signatures; at least one director must still have stayed in India for 182 days in the financial year.
