Statutory Compliance Consultants for Companies, LLPs & Industrial Establishments in Pune — MoSPI/NSO Surveys
A notice from NSO or MoSPI has a way of sitting in a Pune finance team's inbox for a week while everyone figures out if it's actually their problem.
It is. And the 14-day clock is already moving.
Since April 2026, the National Statistical Office has been sending compliance notices to factories, companies, and LLPs across India under two statutory surveys — ASI and ASISSE. Pune has seen a substantial share. The city's dense auto manufacturing belt, growing IT sector in Hinjewadi and Kharadi, and pharma presence in Bhosari and Sanaswadi all contribute to NSO's sampling frame. If a notice has arrived, the filing obligation is real, it's statutory, and non-compliance accumulates at ₹5,000 per day for companies once the 14-day window closes.
Exim Advisory handles the full filing process for Pune-based businesses — from notice verification through to portal submission.
Why Pune Businesses Are Receiving These Notices
Pune is Maharashtra's second-largest commercial centre — and its industrial and technology profile pulls it directly into both ASI and ASISSE sampling frames.
On the manufacturing side, Pune's auto belt is one of Asia's densest concentrations of vehicle manufacturers and component suppliers. Pimpri-Chinchwad, Chakan, Ranjangaon, and Talegaon house factories that fall squarely within the Factories Act, 1948 registration — which puts them in ASI's sampling universe. Defence and engineering units in the Pune cantonment areas appear too.
On the services side, Hinjewadi, Kharadi, Baner, and Magarpatta form the second-largest IT concentration in Maharashtra. Under ASISSE, IT companies, software product firms, ITES companies, and professional services LLPs with Maharashtra GSTINs registered in Pune are in scope if they appeared in the national sample.
Two Surveys — Which One Is Yours?
ASI — Annual Survey of Industries covers India's registered manufacturing sector: factories, electricity undertakings, and industrial units under the Factories Act, 1948. NSO has run it since 1959. If your Pune factory received a notice, 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 in IT, ITES, financial services, trade, transport, healthcare, education, real estate, and professional services. If your Pune IT company or services LLP got the notice, ASISSE is what applies.
Both surveys run under the Collection of Statistics Act, 2008 (amended 2017) and the Jan Vishwas Act, 2023. The selection unit is the State-level GSTIN, not your company as a whole — so multi-state businesses need to be clear on which GSTIN(s) are selected.
These surveys are completely unconnected to GST or Income Tax proceedings. NSO is legally barred from sharing anything you submit with tax authorities. The data feeds national economic statistics.
Penalty Table
| 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 penalty is additional to — not a replacement for — the filing obligation. Pay the fine, and you still have to submit.
How Exim Advisory Handles Pune Filings
Notice Verification First step: confirm the notice is genuine, identify the selected Maharashtra GSTIN(s), check the reference period, and map your exact filing scope. For Pune companies with pan-India operations, GSTIN-level mapping is essential before any data preparation starts.
Block-by-Block Data Preparation Each block draws from specific financial records:
- Block 1 — Enterprise identity, NIC 2025 activity classification
- Block 3 — Fixed assets, capital work-in-progress
- Block 4 — Working capital, borrowings
- Block 5 — Employment: male, female, transgender headcount; total labour costs
- Blocks 6A & 6B — Intermediate consumption, CPC 3.0 coded
- Block 7A — Revenue and output data
- Blocks 11 & 12 — Digital technology and IT infrastructure
For auto component manufacturers, Block 6A and 6B is where most of the effort concentrates. BOM-level data — steel grades, aluminium components, rubber, plastics, chemicals, packaging — needs to be mapped accurately to CPC 3.0 codes. We handle that mapping systematically alongside your purchase accounts.
Financial Reconciliation P&L, balance sheet, GST returns, payroll register, and fixed asset schedule — all reconciled against each other and against the portal's expected format before we submit anything.
Multi-GSTIN Apportionment Many Pune-headquartered companies maintain consolidated accounts spanning multiple states. We extract Maharashtra GSTIN-specific data accurately — not a rough split, but a properly apportioned figure.
Portal Filing and Post-Submission Support End-to-end submission through the official MoSPI portal and full handling of post-filing NSO queries.

Industries We Work With in Pune
Automobile OEMs and auto component manufacturers across Chakan, Pimpri-Chinchwad, and Ranjangaon — IT and software product companies in Hinjewadi, Kharadi, and Baner — ITES and BPO firms — Defence equipment and engineering manufacturers — Pharmaceutical companies in Bhosari, Shirwal, and Sanaswadi — Logistics and warehousing companies — Financial services and banking operations — Education and EdTech companies — Healthcare institutions — Professional services and consulting firms
What makes Pune auto sector filings demanding: Component manufacturers in Chakan and Pimpri-Chinchwad supply multiple OEMs and run complex multi-shift operations. Their raw material consumption spans hundreds of input types. Block 6A and 6B in the ASI questionnaire is where most of the effort goes for these businesses — and getting it wrong is one of the most common triggers for NSO field verification visits. We've worked with Tier-1 and Tier-2 suppliers through exactly this process.
Frequently Asked Questions
We're an auto component company in Chakan. We've never filed ASI before. Is it too late to start now? Not at all. Being selected for the first time is entirely normal — NSO rotates its sample. File correctly for this year, and the process will be familiar if you're selected again.
Our Pune IT company works with clients in 20 countries. Is that an issue for ASISSE? No. ASISSE captures data on your Indian operations under the Maharashtra GSTIN. Export revenue gets captured in the output and receipts section. The geography of your client base doesn't affect the filing.
Does Exim Advisory cover Pimpri-Chinchwad, Hinjewadi, and Kharadi? Yes. We work with clients across all of Pune and the broader Pune Metropolitan Region.
Our factory audit is delayed. Can we still begin the process? Yes — we can work with provisional accounts. Start early regardless.
Act Before the Penalty Window Closes
Pune's auto and IT companies both tend to underestimate how long ASISSE and ASI data preparation actually takes. Multi-GSTIN apportionment, BOM-level CPC coding, export reconciliation — none of it moves quickly. Start well before the deadline.
If your company or LLP in Pune has received an ASI or ASISSE notice from MoSPI or NSO, reach out to Exim Advisory today. We'll handle the full process through to portal submission.
