The firm

A boutique practice built for the cross border file

Krystal7 Consultants is the trading name of Krystal7 Innovations Private Limited, working out of Gurugram and serving clients across five continents. The team is made up of company secretaries, tax specialists and finance professionals who spend most of their week on files that cross a border somewhere. Anything needing a statutory sign off goes through our associated Chartered Accountant practice.

That is a deliberately narrow specialism. A domestic compliance shop can file your returns. Far fewer can tell you why the RBI flagged your FC-GPR, what your parent company's auditor will ask for at consolidation, or how a management fee to your Delaware entity will read to a transfer pricing officer three years from now. Those are the questions Krystal7 is set up to answer.

We stay small on purpose. You get one named advisor who knows the history of your file, not a ticket queue, and the partners are close enough to the work to catch things before they become notices.

Around 50 advisors
Company secretaries, tax, payroll and finance staff

Across audit support, direct tax, indirect tax, secretarial, payroll and valuation. Deep enough to staff a full India finance function, small enough that your advisor still picks up the phone.

Six things we are genuinely known for

Setting up an entity is one week of a relationship that usually runs for years. Most of our work happens after the certificate of incorporation is filed.

01

India entry and structuring

Choosing between a subsidiary, LLP, branch or liaison office, then executing it. FDI route checks, resident director cover, apostilled parent documents, bank account opening and the first FC-GPR.

Foreign subsidiary
02

FEMA and RBI reporting

The rulebook that governs every cross border rupee. FC-GPR, FC-TRS, FLA returns, ODI Form FC and the pre-remittance UIN, ECB filings, and the late submission fee workings when a filing was already missed.

FEMA compliance
03

Transfer pricing

Form 3CEB applies from the first rupee of a related party transaction. Benchmarking, local file documentation once you cross the threshold, master file and CbCR where relevant, and representation when the file is picked up.

Transfer pricing
04

Ongoing compliance and audit

ROC filings, statutory registers, board and general meetings, director KYC, income tax returns, GST, TDS and the statutory audit. Run on a calendar you can see, with reminders that arrive before the deadline rather than after.

Annual compliance
05

E-CFO and the finance function

A finance layer for an India entity that is too small for a full time CFO. Monthly reporting in the parent's format and currency, cash flow, budgets, board packs, payroll oversight and audit readiness before the auditor asks.

E-CFO services
06

Compliance rescue and representation

For entities that arrive with a backlog or a notice. Missed filings, unreported share allotments, struck off status, an assessment nobody answered. We diagnose the full position first, then quote the clean up, then carry it through, including before the authorities.

Compliance rescue

Also handled in house: GST, income tax returns, accounting and bookkeeping, payroll, trademark and IP, valuation and ESOP advisory, and representation before tribunals and appellate authorities in corporate, FEMA, income tax and GST matters.

How we work

Four things you can hold us to

None of this is remarkable. It is simply what most people expect from a professional firm and rarely get from one operating eight timezones away.

01

One named advisor

You get a person, not a shared inbox. They know the history of your file, they remember the last conversation, and they are the same person next quarter.

02

Scoped and quoted upfront

Every engagement is written down before it starts. What is included, what is not, what it costs and when it is due. No mid engagement rescoping, no surprise line items.

03

Your working day, not ours

The team covers PST, EST, GST and IST. Queries are answered inside four business hours in your timezone, and calls are booked when it is daylight where you are.

04

We flag it before it bites

Deadlines, threshold crossings, a filing that will now attract a late fee. You hear about it while it is still a decision rather than after it has become a penalty.

About the firm

Questions people ask before they engage us

Not about Indian company law. About Krystal7, and whether we are the right firm to hand your India file to.

Something here not answered? Ask it directly and you will get a written reply from an advisor, not a sales sequence.

Ask us
Who actually runs Krystal7, and what are their credentials?

The practice is led by CA Nandini Hasija, a Chartered Accountant who qualified with All India Rank 49, together with co-founder Nihal Srivastava, who runs the cross border advisory and structuring side.

Around them sits a bench of roughly 50 company secretaries, tax specialists and finance staff covering audit support, direct tax, indirect tax, secretarial, payroll and valuation. Krystal7 Innovations Private Limited is not a chartered accountancy practice, so statutory certification and audit sign offs are issued through our associated Chartered Accountant practice.

What is the legal entity behind Krystal7 Consultants?

Krystal7 Consultants operates under Krystal7 Innovations Private Limited, an Indian company with its registered office in Gurugram, Haryana. Engagement letters, invoices and contracts are issued in that name, so your accounts payable team is dealing with a registered Indian company rather than an individual or an unnamed agency.

We are not in India. Does it matter that Krystal7 is based in Gurugram?

It helps. Most of what an Indian entity needs, filing with the MCA, dealing with the ROC, banking documentation, responding to an assessing officer, is easier when your advisor is physically in the country and licensed to appear.

The distance is handled by process. The team works across PST, EST, GST and IST, so you are talking to somebody in your own working day. Documents move digitally, and where a wet signature or physical presence is genuinely required, we tell you at the start of the engagement rather than three weeks in.

Who at Krystal7 will I actually be dealing with day to day?

One named advisor who owns your file, with a partner reviewing the technical work. Not a ticketing system and not a rotating pool. It is the same person next quarter, which is the only way anybody builds real context on a business they cannot walk into.

If your advisor is unavailable, you are told who is covering and that person has already read the file.

How does Krystal7 charge, and what does an engagement typically cost?

Fixed fee against a written scope for one off work, and a monthly retainer for ongoing compliance. You see the number before the work starts, and it does not move unless the scope does, in writing.

As indicative bands: an India subsidiary setup for a foreign parent typically runs USD 1,200 to USD 1,700 depending on structure and document complexity. Ongoing compliance retainers start at USD 300 per month. A full compliance rescue on an entity with a backlog typically starts around USD 2,000, quoted only after we have diagnosed the actual position.

Government fees, stamp duty and statutory levies are passed through at cost and shown separately. We do not mark them up.
