What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own corporate and GST/TDS/TCS compliance end-to-end, draft accurate legal documentation, and help teams keep filings timely, accurate, and low-risk.

I’m a Law and Commerce graduate who supports companies with hands-on corporate compliance, regulatory filings, and legally accurate documentation. I manage GST (GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B), TDS/TCS, and end-to-end MCA/ROC compliance, including DIR-3 KYC, INC-20A, and INC-22A, while assisting with income tax compliance and responses to tax notices.

I also strengthen legal work through drafting and review of NDAs, Shareholders’ Agreements (SHA), and LLP incorporation documents, plus legal due diligence and compliance gap analysis. From board and general meeting documentation to statutory register maintenance and filing readiness, I focus on efficiency, detail, and dependable turnaround for clients.
