Ensure timely and compliant annual filings with the Registrar of Companies.
This is one of the most important compliance areas for companies under the Companies Act, 2013. This as a must-have recurring service because non-filing attracts heavy penalties and director disqualification.
Why Annual Filings Matter
Every company registered under the Companies Act, 2013 is required to file annual returns and financial statements with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). These filings are public records that establish a company’s:
- Financial position (AOC-4)
- Corporate governance & shareholding structure (MGT-7)
- Regulatory compliance transparency (XBRL for specified companies)
Non-filing can result in:
- Heavy penalties & late fees (?100 per day, no cap)
- Disqualification of directors
- Risk of company being struck off by ROC
- Negative impact on investors, lenders, and regulatory credibility
