THE 14-CRORE SHELL GAME

How Lunar Astro Hides Behind OPCs & "Charity" Foundations
DIRECTOR DIN: 08569501 (DEEPANSHU GIRI) | MULTIPLE ENTITIES DETECTED

You thought you were paying for spiritual guidance. You are actually funding a highly sophisticated corporate labyrinth. A forensic dive into the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) reveals that Deepanshu Giri is playing a massive shell game—shifting between One Person Companies (OPCs), Private Limiteds, and tax-exempt "Charity" Foundations across different state jurisdictions.

ENTITY 1: THE "ONE PERSON" CASH COW

LUNAR ASTRO VEDIC ACADEMY (OPC) PRIVATE LIMITED
CIN: U80902UP2019OPC121521 / U80902UP2019PTC121521
Incorporation: 23 Sep, 2019
Jurisdiction: Uttar Pradesh (Ghaziabad Ghost Office)
Reported Revenue: ₹14.9 CRORE INR
Paid-Up Capital: ₹20,000 INR
⚠️ Forensic Red Flag: The OPC Loophole

One Person Companies (OPCs) were designed by the Indian Government for small-scale sole proprietors. Generating a massive ₹14.9 Crore in revenue while maintaining a microscopic paid-up capital of just ₹20,000 is a glaring anomaly. The company has actively played with its registration status (OPC vs PTC) to manipulate compliance thresholds, all while operating out of a 1st-floor residential flat in Nand Gram.

ENTITY 2: THE "CHARITY" DONATION FUNNEL

DEVGURU HINDU ASTROLOGY FOUNDATION
CIN: U80902UR2022NPL014019
Incorporation: 13 May, 2022
Jurisdiction: Uttarakhand (UR)
Entity Type: Section 8 (Non-Profit / Trust)
⚠️ Forensic Red Flag: The Tax-Exempt Funnel

Why does a highly profitable astrology business need a Section 8 Non-Profit Foundation? Deepanshu Giri constantly advises his followers to perform "remedies" by donating money to widows, animals, and the homeless. By establishing the Devguru Hindu Astrology Foundation, he has created a tax-exempt vehicle to funnel these "karmic donations" directly into an entity he controls. This is a textbook method for washing commercial revenue through a charitable front.

THE JURISDICTIONAL HOPPING GIMMICK

Notice the CIN numbers. The main commercial entity is registered in Uttar Pradesh (UP). The charity foundation is registered in Uttarakhand (UR).

By splitting his entities across different state registrars (ROC Kanpur vs. ROC Uttarakhand), Giri creates a jurisdictional nightmare for auditors and tax authorities. If the UP commercial entity gets flagged for its absurd ₹14.9 Cr revenue vs. ₹20k capital ratio, the funds can be safely shielded in the Uttarakhand non-profit trust.
