Common questions
What happens if a company or LLP misses an annual ROC filing deadline?
Statutory annual forms such as AOC-4, MGT-7/MGT-7A, and LLP Form 8 and Form 11 carry an additional late fee of ₹100 per day per form with no upper cap. Prolonged non-filing can also lead to director disqualification under Section 164(2) and strike-off action by the Registrar of Companies.
Do dormant, zero-revenue, or loss-making companies still need to file with the ROC?
Yes. Every active company and LLP on the MCA register must complete its annual statutory audit, hold its AGM, and file its financial statements and annual return every year, regardless of whether it had any revenue or transactions.
What are the key annual ROC due dates for a Private Limited Company?
For a standard financial year ending 31 March: Form DPT-3 (Return of Deposits/Exempted Loans) is due by 30 June, Director DIR-3 KYC is due by 30 September, the AGM must be held by 30 September (for subsequent AGMs), Form AOC-4 is due within 30 days of the AGM (29 October), and Form MGT-7/7A is due within 60 days of the AGM (29 November).
When is FEMA / RBI reporting required for an Indian company?
Whenever an Indian company receives foreign direct investment (FDI), transfers shares between residents and non-residents, or holds foreign assets/liabilities. Form FC-GPR must be filed on the RBI FIRMS portal within 30 days of share allotment, and the annual FLA (Foreign Liabilities and Assets) return is due by 15 July every year.
