    I am a Sports Journalist from Bengaluru and a bit illiterate when it comes to doing business. But I did venture out and started a startup Alpharemy LIfestyles LLP and ran to auditers, lawyers and other experts for five years but could not close my LLP and paid huge amuunts for Compliance. Finally, I searched online and went to Ebizfiling. Initially, I was skeptical if the things will be completed on time, because the rates were almost 50 per cent less than what they asked in Bengaluru. Also I spoke to someone at the other end and I did not understand certain things. But after Deepak Sharma took over, the process was so smooth. He got the DSC done in minutes and he sent all the drafts requred to file Form 24. And I signed and sent them back with notary signatures and then he patiently cleared all my doubts on incorporation, and other compliance issues. Initially, I wanted to take an IEC for exporting hair and lifestyle products like wigs for cancer patients, he explained all about the process to get IEC. On top of it, he kept the deadline as today is the last date for filing LLP returns, Form 8 KYC and what not... All the headaches are solved and am peaceful, thanks to Deepak. Thank you sir. Much appreciated!

    My experience with Ebizfiling has been great so far thanks to Divya g and Deepak for their kind support. While the communication with them may seem impersonal I always felt at ease. It was like I am dealing with someone who I know personally. I originally took services of Ebiz for filing an LLP application now I am quite sure that this relationship will go a long way thanks to Divya G and Deepak.
