    Applicability

    Who needs ROC / MCA Compliance Filing?

    If any of these describe your business, this service is either mandatory or strongly recommended.

    Most common

    Private Limited Companies

    Every Pvt Ltd must file AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1, DIR-3 KYC and DPT-3 every year — plus MSME-1 half-yearly if it has MSME vendor dues > 45 days.

    Limited Liability Partnerships

    LLPs file Form 8 (statement of accounts) by 30 October and Form 11 (annual return) by 30 May. Late fee ₹100/day per form, no cap.

    One Person Companies (OPCs)

    OPCs file AOC-4 and MGT-7A within 180 days of year-end. Simplified compliance vs Pvt Ltd but late fees identical.

    Startups (Post-Incorporation)

    INC-20A commencement of business declaration within 180 days of incorporation. Missed INC-20A = ₹50,000 fine + ₹1,000/day per director.

    Companies with MSME Vendors

    MSME-1 half-yearly return mandatory if any outstanding payment to a Udyam-registered MSME supplier exceeds 45 days. Penalty up to ₹3 lakh per officer.

    Companies with Loans / Deposits

    DPT-3 annual return mandatory for every company reporting loans from directors, share application money pending allotment or advances from customers.

    Every Director with an Active DIN

    DIR-3 KYC mandatory by 30 September every year — skipping deactivates the DIN and costs ₹5,000 to reactivate. Applies even for dormant/struck-off companies.

    The complete guide

    ROC / MCA Compliance in India — everything you need to know

    A CS-authored, plain-English guide to annual filings, event-based forms, penalties, DIN KYC and director disqualification.

    What is ROC / MCA compliance?

    ROC (Registrar of Companies) compliance is the set of statutory filings every Pvt Ltd, LLP, OPC and Section 8 company must file with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) every year under the Companies Act, 2013 and LLP Act, 2008. These filings ensure that the government's public register carries an up-to-date snapshot of the company's financials, directors, shareholders, indebtedness and material events.

    Since 2023, all filings happen on the MCA V3 web portal using webform-based data entry (no more PDF SRN uploads for most forms) and Class 3 DSC authentication. Non-filing attracts flat ₹100/day penalties per form with NO upper cap, and repeated defaults can disqualify directors under Section 164(2) or lead to company strike-off under Section 248.

    The annual mandatory forms — one calendar

    DIR-3 KYC — the annual director KYC you can't skip

    Every individual holding a Director Identification Number (DIN) — even directors of dormant, inactive or struck-off companies — must file DIR-3 KYC every year by 30 September. Skipping deactivates the DIN and attracts a ₹5,000 late fee for reactivation.

    • First-time filers: DIR-3 KYC form (with mobile OTP + email OTP + DSC)
    • Subsequent years: DIR-3 KYC web (simple confirmation on MCA V3)
    • Change in address / mobile / email requires the full DIR-3 KYC form again
    • DIN deactivation blocks all MCA filings — company can't file AOC-4 or MGT-7
    • Reactivation: pay ₹5,000 + re-file DIR-3 KYC. Takes 24 hours to reflect.

    AOC-4 — filing your financial statements

    AOC-4 is the form used to file the company's audited financial statements (Balance Sheet, P&L, Cash Flow, Auditor's Report, Board's Report, CARO 2020, ICFR report where applicable) with the Registrar of Companies. It must be filed within 30 days of the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Since AGM must happen by 30 September, AOC-4 due date typically falls around 29 October.

    • AOC-4 XBRL mandatory for listed companies, subsidiaries of listed, paid-up capital > ₹5 crore or turnover > ₹100 crore
    • AOC-4 CFS mandatory for companies with subsidiaries (Consolidated Financial Statements)
    • AOC-4 NBFC for NBFCs registered with RBI
    • Attachments: signed financials, auditor's report, board's report, CARO, DPT-3 acknowledgment, MGT-9
    • Digital signatures: 1 director + 1 CFO/CS/Manager + Practising CA/CS/CWA

    MGT-7 / MGT-7A — the annual return

    MGT-7 is the Annual Return that every company (except OPCs and small companies) must file within 60 days of the AGM — typically by 28 November. MGT-7A is the simplified version for OPCs and small companies. The return captures shareholder / director / KMP / debenture holder details, share transfer summary, indebtedness, penalties and any changes during the year.

    • MGT-7 mandatory for companies with paid-up capital > ₹10 crore OR turnover > ₹50 crore — requires CS certification (Form MGT-8)
    • MGT-7A for OPC and small companies — simplified, no CS certification needed
    • Attachments: List of shareholders, list of debenture holders (if any), CSR spend disclosure
    • Late fee: ₹100/day, no cap (identical to AOC-4)
    • Additional annexure needed for CSR-eligible companies (net worth > ₹500 Cr / turnover > ₹1000 Cr / profit > ₹5 Cr)

    DPT-3 & MSME-1 — the two 'you-must-file-even-if-nothing-happened' forms

    DPT-3 — annual

    Filed once a year by 30 June for the previous financial year. Reports (i) any amount considered as deposit and (ii) any 'amount not considered as deposit' — loans from directors, share application money pending allotment, advances from customers, security deposits. Almost every Pvt Ltd files DPT-3 with 'Amounts not considered deposit' data — even a zero return is filed to be safe.

    MSME-1 — half-yearly

    Filed twice a year: 31 October (Apr–Sep) and 30 April (Oct–Mar). Mandatory if any outstanding payment to a Udyam-registered MSME supplier exceeds 45 days at any point in the half-year. Non-filing attracts up to ₹25,000 for the company and ₹3 lakh per defaulting officer under Section 405.

    Penalties, disqualification and strike-off

    MCA penalties compound quickly because they don't cap. A single missed year of AOC-4 + MGT-7 (2 forms × 365 days × ₹100) can create a ₹73,000+ liability. And beyond fees, the reputational and legal damage is severe.

    Section 164(2) — director disqualification

    If a company fails to file financial statements or annual return for 3 consecutive years, every director is disqualified for 5 years from being appointed to any other company. The DIN is deactivated across all companies.

    Section 248 — strike-off

    The Registrar can strike off a non-compliant company from the MCA register. Once struck off, revival requires an NCLT petition costing ₹30,000–₹1,50,000+ in legal fees, plus arrears and penalties.

    Section 447 — fraud

    Willful misrepresentation in ROC filings can attract fraud proceedings under Section 447 — imprisonment 6 months to 10 years + fine 1–3× the amount involved.

    LLP compliance — Form 8 and Form 11

    LLPs have a simpler compliance regime than Pvt Ltd — only two annual forms — but the same ₹100/day no-cap penalty applies for late filing. Every LLP, even zero-turnover / dormant, must file both.
