Company and LLP registration and annual ROC compliance.

Start the right entity the right way, and keep it in good standing every year, with every Registrar of Companies filing done on time.

A company or LLP is a separate legal person, and the law expects it to behave like one: board meetings, books, annual accounts and a steady rhythm of filings with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Missing them does not make the company disappear. It makes the penalties, and the directors’ difficulties, add up quietly.

We help you pick the right structure, incorporate it with clean documents, and then keep up the yearly cycle so that you can raise money, open accounts and sell the business without a clean-up exercise first.

What we do

Choosing the structure

Private limited company, LLP, one person company or partnership: the trade-offs in tax, liability, funding and compliance cost.

Incorporation

Name approval, director identification numbers, the incorporation form, the constitutional documents and the first set of PAN, TAN and bank formalities.

Annual filings for companies

Financial statements (AOC-4), the annual return (MGT-7), the auditor appointment and the director KYC.

Annual filings for LLPs

The statement of accounts and solvency (Form 8) and the annual return (Form 11).

Changes to the company

Adding or removing directors and partners, changing the registered office, name, objects or share capital.

Board and shareholder paperwork

Notices, agendas, minutes and resolutions for board and general meetings, and statutory registers.

Closing down a company

Striking off a dormant company or closing an LLP properly.

Frequently asked questions

What do I need to start a private limited company?

At least two directors, one of whom must be a resident in India, at least two shareholders, a registered office in India and a unique name. We take care of the filings and documents.

What are the yearly ROC filings for a company?

The annual general meeting within six months of the financial year-end, then the financial statements and the annual return within the prescribed number of days of the meeting, plus director KYC and auditor-related forms. We give you the exact dates for your company.

What happens if I miss an ROC filing?

An additional fee is charged for each day of delay, and prolonged default can lead to disqualification of directors and strike-off of the company. It is usually much cheaper to catch up early.

Should I choose an LLP or a private limited company?

It depends on whether you expect outside investment, how you want to share profits, and how much compliance you are ready for. We compare them for your situation.

Do I have to file returns if the company is not operating?

Yes. Even a dormant company must file annual accounts and returns unless it is formally struck off or has taken the dormant status.

This page is general information and not advice for your situation. Rates, limits and due dates change, and some depend on your state or scheme, so we confirm the current rules for your case before we act.
