Compliance for companies registered under ROC

Formation and running of the company were used to be an easy process under Companies Act, 1956 as annual ROC compliance were not multiple and also registrar of company (“ROC”) did not used to take any strict action against defaulter.

Therefore, list of defaulting companies was getting longer every day.

However, after introduction of Companies Act, 2013, with the objective to increase transparency and to minimize non-compliance, ROC started using various parameters to confirm genuineness of a company and started striking off name of company which are not operating from a long time and also which didn’t appear genuine to ROC.

In previous period, name of thousands of defaulting and non-operating companies were strike off by ROC.

Also, new company law contains stringent penal provisions for non-compliance and in case of default; company as well as key managerial personnel are liable to be panel provisions.

In line with the same, recently various new amendments have come into effect under the Companies Act, 2013 requiring companies registered under ROC to report certain additional information to annual ROC compliance to maintain active status and non-compliance thereof lead to heavy penalty in monetary terms and other non-monetary penal consequences also.

Accordingly, considering the increasing complication and number of compliances for private limited companies and other types of companies registered under ROC, we have tried to compile all ROC compliances and forms required to file by a companies covered under Companies Act 2013 along with ROC compliance due dates.

There are certain forms to be filled only one time for FY 2019-20 and there are certain forms to be filled with ROC on periodic basis.
