A dedicated Singapore desk within PJRJ
PJRJ Singapore Desk is ACRA Pte. Ltd. work for Indian owners who actually need a Singapore-resident director, a UEN, and IRAS — not a nominee kit with no substance. Holding-company and regional-HQ stories still face audit-exemption tests, GST registration when taxable supplies cross the live IRAS threshold, estimated charge / GIRO, and CPF when there are staff. India FEMA ODI (unlisted Pte. Ltd. equity is typically ODI, not OPI) and the India–Singapore DTAA sit on the same file as Form 15CA/CB for dividends and services. Delhi or Gurgaon partner; Singapore accountants for local sign-off.
BizFile annual return, XBRL or other financial-statement formats where audit is required, GST returns on the IRAS cycle, and company tax Form C / C-S are separate clocks. A Singapore-resident director is a Companies Act fact, not a brochure extra. We will not pretend PJRJ staff can be that director. India consolidation uses the same trial balance the Singapore accountant signs — see /guides/singapore-company-formation-from-india.

View detailsWhy clients use the Singapore Desk
One desk, two jurisdictions
ACRA, IRAS, and India tax positions stay on the same file — not a Singapore bookkeeper who cannot speak FEMA and an Indian advisor who has never seen a GST return.
Calendar-led, not brochure-led
annual return, financial reports, GST return, company tax, and CPF each have their own clock. We track the year-end and IRAS due dates with the Singapore partner.
Partner-led from Delhi and Gurgaon
You speak to a PJRJ partner. Singapore statutory accounts and IRAS lodgements that must be signed locally are executed with Singapore accountants.
India group reporting in the same numbers
Year-end packs, treaty credits, and FEMA papers use the same facts as the Singapore accounts — so consolidation does not start from a second set of books.

Typical Singapore compliance calendar
Company dates usually follow the financial year ending. GST follows the accounting period IRAS assigns. Confirm live due dates on ACRA BizFile and myTax Portal.
| Filing | Typical cadence | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| ACRA annual return | Annually | Confirm officeholders, shares, and registered office. Lodge within the ACRA window after your financial year-end. |
| Financial statements / audit | After year-end | Companies that are not audit-exempt must appoint an auditor and lodge XBRL or other formats as required. Confirm small-company exemption tests with the Singapore accountant. |
| Corporate income tax | After year-end | IRAS Form C / C-S (or e-filing equivalent). Estimated charge payable (ECP) and GIRO instalments may apply in-year. |
| GST returns | Usually quarterly | Mandatory once taxable turnover crosses the current IRAS GST registration threshold, or earlier if you register voluntarily. |
| Estimated charge / GIRO | As assigned by IRAS | In-year corporate tax instalments. Do not treat the year-end return as the only payment. |
| CPF & payroll | Each payday / month | Where there are Singapore employees or certain directors on payroll — CPF contributions and related IRAS / MOM filings. |

Singapore FAQs
ACRA, IRAS, and India cross-border questions.
Yes. We coordinate a private limited company (Pte. Ltd.) with ACRA — directors, shareholders, registered office, and UEN — with Singapore partners. GST and company-tax registrations follow once activity starts.
Typically an annual return. Director and share changes should be lodged when they happen. Companies that must file audited financial statements may also need to lodge financial reports. We track the annual-return date with the Singapore accountant.
When GST turnover reaches the current IRAS registration threshold, or earlier if you register voluntarily. After registration, you lodge GST return on the period the IRAS assigns. We check the threshold against your forecast.
No. Indian residents remain taxable on worldwide income unless a specific exemption applies. Treaty relief under the India–Singapore DTAA, PE analysis, dividend characterisation, and FEMA ODI reporting still apply. We coordinate both files.
Yes. We coordinate GST return and CPF with the Singapore partner where they apply, and the India tax desk handles Form 15CA/CB, withholding, and FEMA when money moves between the Indian and Singapore entities.
