Back in 2016, a European Company in Mumbai decided to close its Liaison Office (LO). The company got stuck because there were a lot of non-compliances to clear up with the ROC and RBI. They had help from a certified CA, but the paperwork wasn’t moving.
In 2019 the company approached M+V for help. We resolved the non-compliances step by step. The RBI closed the Liaison Office (LO) last month, and the parent company has bank balance back in its accounts.
