Three mandates, one accountable team

Most of our clients need all three at once. We run them together, so the tax position, the licence condition and the group reporting line all agree.

How we are structured. RRBP Advisors is the brand under which our group practises. Work for the India mainland market — company and LLP law, direct tax, GST, FEMA, audit and secretarial practice — is delivered by our Indian practice entities. Work inside the International Financial Services Centre is delivered by RRBP Global Advisors IFSC LLP, a unit in GIFT SEZ registered with the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) as an Ancillary Services provider under IFSCA registration no. IFSCA/TAS/2025-26/0045. You deal with one team; the engagement is contracted through the right entity for the jurisdiction, so the regulatory position is clean on both sides.

Sample“
The licence pathway was mapped against our actual trading model on day one, not after we had already incorporated. That saved us a restructuring we would otherwise have paid for twice.
Principal OfficerBroker-dealer, GIFT IFSC

They run our compliance calendar across IFSCA, the SEZ portal and ICEGATE. We have not missed a filing since they took it over.
