DON’T GET CAUGHT OUT

No business doesn't mean no filing.

Zero revenue, dormant, or not started yet? Your entity still has to file — and the penalty follows you whether you traded or not.

NIL returns are still mandatory every year your entity exists.

Late fees of ₹100/day per form keep running — with no upper cap.

Keep ignoring it and the ROC can strike off the company and disqualify directors.

No turnover ≠ no compliance.

THE COMPLIANCE YEAR

Your filing year, in order.

Annual compliance isn’t one task — it’s a run of forms across the year, each with its own deadline. Follow it top to bottom. The strip shows how many filings fall in each month; October is the clear pressure point.

GOOD TO KNOW

Annual ROC filing is the baseline — not the whole picture.

The forms above are mandatory for every active entity. The two groups below are separate — some are triggered by transactions you undertake, others by specific events during the year. Whether they apply depends on what your business actually does.

!

Charged and filed separately, by transaction

If your business deducts tax, sells goods or services, imports or exports, or receives foreign investment, the obligations below kick in on their own cycles — often monthly or quarterly, not once a year. We scope these case by case after reviewing your activity.

TDS / TCS

Tax deducted at source

Quarterly returns (24Q / 26Q) and monthly challan deposits.

if you deduct tax

GST

GST returns

GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and the annual GSTR-9, per your turnover.

if GST-registered

IEC

Import-export code

Mandatory annual IEC update on the DGFT portal.

if you trade abroad

FEMA

Foreign exchange

FC-GPR, FLA returns and filings for foreign investment transactions.

if foreign investment

Other transaction-based filings — such as PF/ESI, Professional Tax, or PAS-6 — may also apply. Tell us about your operations and we’ll map the compliance requirements.

Event-based forms — triggered by what you do

Beyond the annual calendar, some forms are due only when a specific event happens — raising capital, creating a charge, changing directors. These carry their own short deadlines (often 15–30 days from the event), so they’re handled as and when they arise.

CHG-1 / CHG-4

Charge creation / closure

Register or satisfy a charge when you take or repay secured loans.

within 30 days

DIR-12

Change in directors

Appointment, resignation or change in designation of a director.

within 30 days

PAS-3

Allotment of shares

Filed on issuing new shares or completing an allotment.

within 30 days

INC-22

Registered office change

Shift of registered office within or across jurisdictions.

within 15–30 days

BEN-2

Beneficial ownership

Report a significant beneficial owner once declared.

within 30 days

DPT-3

Return of deposits

Annual return of deposits and loans — also on the calendar.

by 30 Jun, yearly

Not every form applies to every entity — and missing an event-based deadline carries the same daily penalties. We flag the ones relevant to you, on time.

WHY TIMING MATTERS

Late filing isn't a small slip.

ROC penalties accrue daily and don't stop until you file. Here's what missing a deadline actually costs.

₹100/day

Per form, no upper cap

LLP late fees run at ₹100 a day for each form — and there is no maximum. Delays compound fast.

12×

Up to 12× the normal fee

Company forms filed late attract additional fees that scale up to twelve times the normal amount.

Strike-off

Company can be removed

Persistent non-filing can trigger strike-off proceedings — the ROC may remove the entity entirely.

Disqualification

Directors lose eligibility

Directors of defaulting companies can be disqualified from holding directorships.
