Corporate & Regulatory Compliance
Incorporation, ROC filings, secretarial support and business registrations.
Every company and LLP carries a filing calendar of its own, separate from tax and running to its own dates. Annual accounts and an annual return go to the Registrar of Companies, an event-based form follows anything that changes, and registers have to exist and be current.
Default behaves harshly here. Additional fee on a late Registrar filing accrues by the day, the default attaches to the company and to each officer, and a director who misses the annual KYC filing is deactivated until it is made good.
The work is largely predictable, which is why it gets missed. We keep the calendar, file the forms, maintain the registers, and handle the one-off events — an incorporation, a change in capital or directors, a registration, a strike-off.
Whose obligation this usually is.
- Private limited companies Annual filings, meeting documentation, statutory registers, and event-based forms as things change.
- LLPs The annual return and statement of accounts, which fall due on different dates from a company's.
- Newly incorporated entities First-year obligations that arrive quickly — capital paid in and reported, first auditor appointed, registers opened.
- Dormant and inactive companies A company that has stopped trading still files, and default accrues whether or not there was activity.
- Trusts, societies and section 8 companies Formation, registration, and the filings that follow under the law the entity is registered under.
What usually starts a file.
A director, the registered office, the authorised capital or the shareholding is changing.
The company has had a notice from the Registrar, or a form has been marked defective.
Filings are in arrears and you want the exposure quantified before it grows.
A customer or a tender has asked for a Udyam registration, an importer-exporter code or professional tax.
The business has stopped and you want the entity closed rather than left to accumulate default.
How this practice runs a file.
One calendar per entity
Every recurring filing for your company or LLP is dated on our calendar, and you hear from us ahead of the date.
Event before form
The resolution, register entry and minute come first. The form records a decision properly taken; it does not substitute for taking it.
Registers kept current
Members, directors, charges and related-party registers are written up as events happen, because reconstructing them later is what causes the problem.
Acknowledgements returned
Each filing comes back with its challan and service request number, so your own record is complete.
The law this work sits under.
Sections, forms and limits change by amendment and notification. We work from the provision in force for your period.
- Companies Act, 2013
- Incorporation, annual accounts and annual return, meetings, registers, charges and strike-off.
- Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008
- The annual return and the statement of account and solvency, and the changes an LLP must report.
- MCA rules and the filing portal
- The form in force, and the additional fee the Ministry levies on a filing made late.
- State and central registration law
- Shops and Establishment, professional tax, Udyam and the importer-exporter code, each with its own authority.

Where this connects.
Registrar filings depend on numbers the other practices produce — audited accounts before the annual filing, a settled tax position before the accounts.
