Confirmation + Acknowledgement

You receive SRN numbers, acknowledgements, and a compliance summary for your records — all archived digitally.

Non-Compliance Does Not Wait

Every missed deadline sets off a chain reaction. Here is what happens when companies delay.

Financial Penalties

₹100 per day compounds silently. A 6-month delay on MGT-7 alone crosses ₹18,000 per form, with no cap for most company types.

DIN Deactivation

Missing DIR-3 KYC by September 30 deactivates the DIN the next morning. The director is immediately barred from signing any MCA filing in any company.

Struck Off the Register

Two consecutive years of non-filing triggers ROC strike-off action under Section 248. The company is treated as dissolved — bank accounts frozen, assets unavailable.

Criminal Liability

Directors can face prosecution under Sections 147, 149, and 420 of the Companies Act. First-time offences carry fines; repeat offences carry imprisonment up to 6 months.

What Companies Ask Before They Engage

Clear, direct answers to the compliance questions directors ask most.

Missing ROC annual filings triggers a penalty of ₹100 per day of default for forms like MGT-7 and AOC-4, with no upper cap for most companies. Prolonged non-compliance can lead to the company being struck off the MCA register under Section 248 of the Companies Act, 2013. Once struck off, the company is treated as dissolved and cannot carry on business. Directors of struck-off companies may also be disqualified under Section 164(2) from being appointed or reappointed as a director in any other company for five years.
Yes. DIR-3 KYC must be filed every financial year by September 30 for every director who holds a Director Identification Number (DIN), regardless of whether they are an active director in any company. The first-time KYC requires the full DIR-3 KYC eForm with DSC and OTP verification. In subsequent years, directors use the simpler DIR-3 KYC Web service (no DSC required) if no details have changed. Failure to file results in a flat penalty of ₹5,000 and immediate DIN deactivation, blocking the director from signing any MCA filing until the KYC is completed.
MGT-7 is the full Annual Return form applicable to all companies except small companies and One Person Companies (OPCs). It requires detailed disclosure of shareholding pattern, related party transactions, and managerial remuneration. MGT-7A is a simplified form introduced for small companies and OPCs, requiring fewer disclosures. Both must be filed within 60 days of the AGM (typically by November 28 if the AGM is held on September 30). The penalty for late filing of either form is ₹100 per day from the due date.
Yes, but the process is time-bound and legally intensive. Under Section 252 of the Companies Act, 2013, an aggrieved party — a member, creditor, or the company itself — can file an application with the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) for restoration within 20 years from the struck-off date. The NCLT may order restoration if satisfied the company was carrying on business at the time or restoration is just and equitable. All pending annual returns and financial statements must be filed along with the application, and all accumulated penalties must be paid before restoration is granted.
No. LLPs operate under the LLP Act, 2008 and file Form 11 (Annual Return) by May 30 and Form 8 (Statement of Account and Solvency) by October 30 each year. LLPs do not file MGT-7, AOC-4, or ADT-1, and they do not hold AGMs. However, Designated Partners of LLPs hold DINs and must complete DIR-3 KYC annually by September 30, just like directors of private limited companies. The penalty structure for LLP forms is similar — ₹100 per day for late filing of Forms 8 and 11.
