For using your name with suffix as Consultant/Associate, you need not make any registration, except if any required by the local laws of any particular area.  However, you can make registration under Section 17(1)(v) of Indian Registration Act, by making a simple declaration of the ownership of the Proprietorship concern.  This is, however, not compulsory.  However, if u wish to add Pvt Ltd as suffix, you need registration under Indian Companies Act.  For registrering as Tax Consultant/Accountant with either income tax department or with some other authority,  you need to have appropriate qualifications.  If you print your business cards, showing consultant in these areas, it may be open to any client, who is not satisfied with you to file a case of misrepresentation against you

Since you mention that you would be only running a consultancy, so there will be no Sale of Goods, therefore, no officer may find any stock of goods.  Therefore, they are not likely to visit.  However, for consultancies, you need to account for service tax and register under the relevant Service Tax Rules.

Great concept. As a result of higher costs and fees of operating a business in Western countries, outsourcing firms in the East have become a new practical choice for both multinational clients and job-seekers alike.
