Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions on GST Advisory and Transaction Structuring services

Cross-border transaction advisory is professional guidance for businesses involved in international trade or investment.

It covers compliance with foreign trade policy, customs laws, FEMA regulations, and tax implications for inbound and outbound transactions.

Cross-border transactions are broadly classified under:

  • Current Account Transactions – imports, exports, remittances, service payments.
  • Capital Account Transactions – FDI, ECB, ODI, and portfolio investments.

Companies need cross-border advisory to ensure regulatory compliance, reduce legal and tax risks, optimise trade incentives like RODTEP and Duty Drawback, and streamline licensing under DGFT, RBI, and Customs authorities.

IEC Certificate is issued typically within a day.

MOOWR (Manufacturing and Other Operations in Warehouse Regulation) allows deferral of customs duty on imported goods used in manufacturing, reducing working capital blockage.

Cross-border advisory helps with registration, approvals, and procedural setup.

DGFT (Directorate General of Foreign Trade) regulates India's foreign trade policies and approves licensing under schemes like EPCG, Advance Authorisation, and SCOMET.

Advisory services help businesses comply with DGFT requirements and avoid penalties.

Current Account covers the flow of goods, services, and income (exports, remittances).

Capital Account deals with investments, loans, and asset transfers (FDI, ECB, ODI).

Non-compliance can result in penalties under FEMA, Customs, denial of export incentives, customs disputes, license suspension, and delay in shipments or investments.
