What Legal and Regulatory Resources Are Available on mkindia.com?

Updated

mkindia.com hosts a "Knowledge Bank" that collects Indian tax, corporate, and regulatory reference material in one place, alongside bulletins and statutory notifications.

Rates, fees, and reference tables

How to use this section

  1. Decide which branch of law applies to your question — direct tax, indirect tax, corporate, or a state-specific VAT issue.
  2. Open the corresponding Act or rule set from the Knowledge Bank to read the provision.
  3. If you need a number rather than a provision, go to the rates and fees tables (TDS, depreciation, ROC fees, stamp duty) instead of the statutes.
  4. For time-sensitive changes, check the Bulletins section, which aggregates RBI, SEBI, and tax department notifications and circulars.

Limits to keep in mind

The page evidence shows the categories the site lists, not the currency or completeness of each document. Before relying on any rate, fee, or statutory text for a filing or a compliance decision, confirm it against the latest official notification from the relevant authority, since tax rates and thresholds change through amendments and circulars.
