I am applying for registration of a partnership firm under the Indian Partnership Act, 1932 with the Registrar of Firms in Maharashtra.

The head office of the firm will be located in Maharashtra, however the factory (branch/place of business) will be situated in Gujarat.

In this regard, I would like to clarify the following:

While applying for registration with ROF Maharashtra, is it mandatory to disclose the factory located in Gujarat as an “additional place of business”?

If yes, in which form should this detail be provided during the registration process (for example, Form A under Section 58)?

What is the procedure for mentioning an additional place of business located in another state at the time of initial registration?

What documents or proofs are required to be uploaded or submitted for such additional place of business (factory in Gujarat)?

Kindly guide on the correct form, procedure, and documentation requirements for this situation.

I have filed Form 108 along with the on-paper extension on the SSP portal and the same has been approved. However, while filing the examination form, an error is appearing stating: ‘You are not allowed to fill the exam form due to non-compliance of article training requirements.’

I am a newly qualified Chartered Accountant and would like to change my signature before applying for membership.
Is it mandatory for my signature as a CA member to be the same as the one used in my government documents and bank records?
If I change my signature at this stage, will I also be required to update it across all my official documents and bank accounts?

We seek your guidance regarding the opening of a bank account for a Russian foreign company that has established a Branch Office in India.

Currently, the Indian Branch Office holds a bank account with a Russian bank. However, the said bank is unable to comply with and fulfill the statutory and regulatory requirements applicable to the operations of the Branch Office in India, including requirements under Indian laws and regulatory authorities.

The applicable regulatory framework, approvals, and compliances (such as RBI/FEMA requirements) for opening such an account; and

We would appreciate your expert guidance and support in resolving this matter at the earliest.
