Statutory Compliance Consultants for Companies, LLPs & Industrial Establishments in Delhi — MoSPI/NSO Surveys
Two things happen when a notice from NSO or MoSPI arrives at a Delhi registered office.
First — someone googles it to check if it's real. Second — it gets forwarded around the accounts department while everyone waits to see who picks it up.
So: it's real. And someone needs to file it.
Since April 2026, the National Statistical Office has been sending out notices to thousands of incorporated businesses across India under two statutory surveys — ASI and ASISSE. Delhi, as one of the most densely registered commercial jurisdictions in the country, has received a significant share. Trading companies, professional services LLPs, PSUs, IT firms registered in Nehru Place or Okhla, manufacturing establishments in Wazirpur and Bawana — all categories are represented in the national sample.
The obligation is backed by the Collection of Statistics Act, 2008. Non-compliance past 14 days triggers daily penalties of ₹5,000 for companies. Exim Advisory handles the entire filing process for Delhi and NCR-based businesses.
Why Delhi Shows Up Heavily in the Sample
Delhi is among the most densely registered commercial jurisdictions in India. Thousands of Private Limited Companies, LLPs, and PSUs maintain their registered offices here — spanning services, trading, professional consulting, transport, education, healthcare, and beyond. NSO's sampling for ASISSE used the GSTN database, which makes Delhi GSTINs a significant presence in the national selection pool.
For ASI, Delhi's industrial areas — Okhla, Wazirpur, Narela, Lawrence Road, Bawana — have factories registered under the Factories Act that appear regularly in NSO's manufacturing survey samples. If your factory is in one of these areas and a notice arrived, that's the reason.
Two Surveys. Know Which One Applies.
ASI — Annual Survey of Industries covers the registered manufacturing sector: factories under the Factories Act, 1948, electricity undertakings, bidi and cigar establishments, and industrial units broadly. It's been conducted since 1959. For Delhi's manufacturing belt, this is the applicable framework.
ASISSE — Annual Survey of Incorporated Services Sector Enterprises launched in April 2026 — India's first formal annual survey of the incorporated services sector. It covers Private Limited Companies, LLPs, Public Limited Companies, and PSUs operating in IT, ITES, financial services, trade, transport, hospitality, healthcare, education, real estate, and professional services. Proprietorships and partnerships are excluded. If you're a company or LLP in those sectors and your Delhi GSTIN was selected, ASISSE is what you're dealing with.
Both operate under the Collection of Statistics Act, 2008 (amended 2017) and the Jan Vishwas Act, 2023.
Critically — these surveys have no connection to GST scrutiny or Income Tax assessments. The Act legally prohibits NSO from sharing submitted data with the IT Department, GST authorities, SEBI, or RBI for enforcement use. What you submit feeds economic statistics. Nothing else.
Penalty Structure Under the Act
| Default Stage | Penalty |
| Failure or refusal to furnish information | Up to ₹5,000 (companies) / ₹1,000 (individuals) |
| Non-compliance beyond 14 days | Up to ₹5,000 per day (companies) / ₹1,000 per day (individuals) |
| Wilful submission of false information | Imprisonment up to 6 months and/or fine |
| Recovery mechanism | As arrears of land revenue under Section 15C |
The fine doesn't replace the filing. It adds to it. You pay the penalty and still have to submit the return.
How Exim Advisory Handles Delhi Filings
Notice Verification First Before any data work begins, we confirm the notice is authentic, identify the specific Delhi GSTINs selected, verify the reference period, and scope your exact filing obligation. Delhi businesses with multi-state GST registrations — holding companies, trading groups with national networks — need GSTIN-level mapping done before anything else.
Block-by-Block Data Preparation The questionnaire is structured in blocks, each drawing from different financial records:
- Block 1 — Enterprise identity, ownership type, NIC 2025 activity classification
- Block 3 — Fixed assets and capital work-in-progress
- Block 4 — Working capital, borrowings
- Block 5 — Employment headcount split by gender; total labour costs
- Blocks 6A & 6B — Intermediate consumption, coded under CPC 3.0
- Block 7A — Revenue, receipts, output
- Blocks 11 & 12 — Digital technology usage and IT infrastructure
Every figure is sourced from an audited document. No estimates.
Financial Reconciliation GST returns, P&L, balance sheet, payroll register, fixed asset schedule — reconciled against each other and against the portal's expected data format before a single entry is submitted. A mismatch caught at reconciliation is far better than an NSO query after submission.
Multi-GSTIN Apportionment Delhi-registered companies — particularly holding entities, trading firms, and service businesses with national presence — often run consolidated books covering 15–20 states. We extract Delhi GSTIN-specific data accurately. Apportioned properly, not roughly split.
Portal Filing and Follow-Up End-to-end submission through the official MoSPI secure portal and full support for any post-submission NSO field queries.

Industries We Work With in Delhi
Trading companies and wholesale distributors across Chandni Chowk, Karol Bagh, and Sadar Bazaar — IT and technology companies in Nehru Place, Mohan Cooperative, and Okhla — Professional services: consulting, legal, CA firms, advisory companies — Healthcare and diagnostics companies — Education and EdTech businesses — Transport and logistics companies — Real estate and construction firms (incorporated entities) — Manufacturing establishments in Okhla, Wazirpur, Bawana, and Narela industrial areas — PSUs and government-owned corporations with Delhi registered offices
The common challenge for Delhi registered companies: Many businesses here operate as holding entities or group headquarters. Their individual Delhi GSTIN captures only a portion of total group operations — and separating that correctly from consolidated financials, especially where large inter-company transactions are involved, is where most of the actual work happens. Trading groups, professional services networks, diversified conglomerates — we've managed this kind of disaggregation for all of them.
Frequently Asked Questions
The notice arrived at our Delhi registered office. How do we verify it? ASISSE was officially launched via PIB Press Release dated 6 April 2026 (Release ID: 2249336). Check that the portal URL is on the mospi.gov.in domain and cross-reference the NSO Field Office contact in your notice against NSO's published directory. Both should match.
We're a Delhi-registered holding company with subsidiaries across India. Does each entity file separately? Yes — and the obligation is GSTIN-specific, not entity-wide. If NSO selected your Delhi holding company's GSTIN, that GSTIN files independently, regardless of what your subsidiaries are doing.
Our company operates both a manufacturing unit (ASI) and a services entity (ASISSE). Can Exim Advisory handle both? Yes. We manage both streams in parallel. Many Delhi-registered business groups have exactly this structure — we're set up to handle it.
Our FY 2024–25 audit isn't finalised. Can we start anyway? Yes. We can begin with available financial data and provisional accounts. But don't delay — the reconciliation takes time, and deadlines under the Act are fixed.
Don't Let the Deadline Move Past You
Delhi-registered businesses with multi-state operations tend to underestimate how long the reconciliation and GSTIN-level apportionment takes. Start well before the deadline, not the week before it.
If your company or LLP in Delhi has received an ASI or ASISSE notice from MoSPI or NSO, reach out to Exim Advisory today. We'll verify your notice, outline exactly what's needed, and handle the entire filing through to submission.
