Common questions

FAQs from Chandannagar clients

Our lighting workshop in Chandannagar earns almost everything during the puja season. How do we handle taxes on such uneven income?

Income tax looks at the full year, so seasonality itself is fine — the traps are advance tax (instalments due even before your season starts, planned around your cycle) and GST, where big order months need working-capital planning since tax is due on billing. A once-a-year sitting before the season, and the rest runs itself.

We take lighting contracts in other states. Does that need multiple GST registrations?

Generally no — supplying or performing work in another state from your Chandannagar base is an inter-state supply under your West Bengal registration, with IGST. A separate registration is needed only with a fixed place of business there. Event and exhibition work has some special cases; describe the contract and we will confirm which applies.

I inherited a share of an old family house in Chandannagar. Is inheritance taxed? What about when we sell?

Inheritance itself: no tax in India. On sale, capital gains apply using the original owner's acquisition date and cost — for old heritage properties, the fair market value as on 1 April 2001 can be used as the base, which usually needs a registered valuer. Getting that valuation right is where most of the tax outcome is decided.

How close is your office to Chandannagar, really?

About 16 km — across the river via the Jubilee Bridge rail link through Naihati–Bandel, or by road. Closer than central Kolkata. Between WhatsApp, calls, and the occasional cross-river visit in either direction, Hooghly-side clients are served exactly like local ones.
