Question 1

What is the PJRJ UK Desk?

Accepted Answer

It is a dedicated United Kingdom practice inside PJRJ & Associates. A Delhi or Gurgaon partner leads company setup, HMRC VAT, corporation tax, PAYE, books, and India–UK coordination, with UK accounting and company-service partners for local filings.

Question 2

Can PJRJ incorporate a UK company from India?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We coordinate a private limited company at Companies House — directors, share capital, SIC codes, registered office, and PSC details — with UK company-service partners. HMRC corporation-tax and VAT registrations follow once activity starts.

Question 3

Does PJRJ have an office in the UK?

Accepted Answer

No. There is no PJRJ high-street office in London. The UK Desk is partner-led from Delhi (A-34, Street NO.-3, Rajapuri, Uttam Nagar, New Delhi - 110059) and Gurgaon (115B, 1st Floor, Vipul Business Park, Sector 48, Gurgaon - 122001). Companies House and HMRC filings that must be signed locally sit with UK accountants. Call +91-8882913461 or email pjrjandassociates@gmail.com to reach the India partner who owns your file.

Question 4

Can PJRJ incorporate a UK company from India?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We coordinate a private limited company at Companies House — directors, share capital, SIC codes, registered office, and PSC details — with UK company-service partners. HMRC corporation-tax and VAT registrations follow once activity starts.

Question 5

What is the India–UK CETA and does PJRJ advise on it?

Accepted Answer

The India–United Kingdom Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement entered into force on 15 July 2026. It creates preferential goods and services access between the two markets, alongside a Double Contribution Convention on social security for qualifying temporary assignments. PJRJ helps Indian groups and UK-facing businesses map CETA readiness to entity setup, HMRC filings, remittances, and FEMA — we do not invent tariff schedules or certify origin for customs. See the CETA page on this desk for the working brief.

Question 6

What Companies House filings does a UK Ltd need every year?

Accepted Answer

Typically a Confirmation Statement and statutory accounts. You must also keep the PSC register and officer details current when they change. Late filings attract automatic penalties. We track the accounting reference date with the UK accountant.

Question 7

When must a UK company register for VAT?

Accepted Answer

When taxable turnover reaches the current HMRC registration threshold, or earlier if you register voluntarily. After registration, Making Tax Digital generally requires compatible software and digital records. We check the threshold against your forecast, not only last year invoices.

Question 8

What is the difference between corporation tax payment and the CT600?

Accepted Answer

For many companies, corporation tax is payable about nine months and one day after the accounting period, while the CT600 return can be due later (often twelve months). Missing the payment date costs interest even if the return is still open.

Question 9

Does a UK company remove Indian tax for the Indian owner?

Accepted Answer

No. Indian residents remain taxable on worldwide income unless a specific exemption applies. Treaty relief under the India–UK DTAA, PE analysis, dividend characterisation, and FEMA ODI reporting still apply. We coordinate both files.

Question 10

Do you handle PAYE and India–UK remittances?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We coordinate PAYE / RTI where there is UK payroll, and the India tax desk handles Form 15CA/CB, withholding, and FEMA when money moves between the Indian and UK entities.
