Tax and compliance work in Ongole

Ongole is Prakasam's headquarters and trading centre — tobacco auction platforms, granite from nearby Chimakurthy, and coastal aquaculture.

We work online with clients in Ongole and around it — Chimakurthy, Kothapatnam, Naguluppalapadu, Tanguturu, Maddipadu — and across Prakasam district.

What clients in Ongole usually need

Agri-commodity traders

Traders with turnover up to ₹2 crore (₹3 crore when cash receipts stay within 5%) can opt for presumptive taxation, where 6% of digital and 8% of cash turnover is treated as profit — commission income doesn't qualify. Farmers selling their own produce are outside GST, but traders of items such as dried chilli, cotton and tobacco must check the HSN rate, register once over the threshold and keep GSTR-1/3B in line with GSTR-2B.

Quarry, stone & cement businesses

Quarry and transport operators can use per-vehicle presumptive income for up to 10 goods vehicles where eligible; larger operations need audited books. Granite, slate, limestone and cement-linked businesses deal with GST on job work, goods transport and machinery hire, plus an e-way bill for every load — monthly reconciliations prevent notices.

Shrimp & fish farming, feed and processing

Shrimp and fish farming income is generally treated as business income, not tax-free agricultural income, so pond-wise accounts and the choice of presumptive taxation matter. Fresh and chilled fish and shrimp are exempt from GST while frozen and processed seafood is taxed, so processors and exporters need careful HSN classification.
