Why this matters for coaching classes
Entrance coaching (NEET, JEE, UPSC, TNPSC, banking, SSC) is a ₹50,000-crore industry growing at 14% CAGR. Coaching is a fully-taxable service under GST (18%), separate from school education. Most coaching institutes register as Pvt Ltd or LLP for credibility, branch expansion, and student-fee deposit protection. FilingLab handles incorporation, GST, content trademark protection, and Form 15CA / 15CB for foreign-faculty payments (a common surprise compliance for institutes hiring NRI tutors).
