Corporate secretarial compliance is becoming increasingly complex as organisations navigate evolving regulations, multi-entity structures, and heightened governance expectations.

Many companies still rely on manual processes to manage board actions, statutory filings, disclosures, and record-keeping, leading to missed deadlines, compliance gaps, duplicated efforts, and increased regulatory and reputational risk.

PurpleBoard is Grant Thornton Bharat’s automated corporate secretarial solution designed to help organisations streamline governance activities and track statutory compliance in real time.

Common challenges in managing corporate secretarial compliance

Common challenges How PurpleBoard helps
Increased regulatory complexity

Navigating complex and evolving laws demands precision and carries a high risk of penalties.

Automated compliance tracking supports timely filings, accurate documentation, and real-time regulatory alerts, helping organisations reduce the risk of penalties through regulatory compliance automation.
Multiple-entity compliance burden
Limited teams are often required to manage rising compliance demands across multiple entities.
Centralised task and document management enables teams to scale operations without increasing headcount by automating workflows, approvals, and document storage across entities, supporting multi-entity compliance management.
Limited visibility for leadership

The absence of real-time data delays compliance actions and decision-making.

Dashboards and instant reporting provide leadership with real-time visibility into compliance status, enabling faster decisions and proactive closure of gaps through a unified compliance dashboard for corporates.
Fragmented governance and data

Dispersed records reduce control, consistency, and data security.

A centralised governance platform consolidates all compliance data into a single, secure system with role-based access, reducing fragmentation and improving oversight across the organisation.
Stakeholder coordination challenges

Too many touchpoints and manual follow-ups cause delays and execution gaps.

Streamlined communication and collaboration tools automate notifications, reduce manual follow-ups, and ensure all stakeholders remain aligned and informed in real time.
