What MCA / ROC compliance is
Every company and LLP registered in India has to make a set of filings each year with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) and the Registrar of Companies (ROC), under the Companies Act, 2013 and the LLP Act, 2008. These are routine, expected obligations — not a special event — and they apply whether or not the business traded during the year.
The work isn’t complicated so much as easy to lose track of: several forms, each with its own window, tied to your financial year-end and your annual general meeting. CapEasy’s job is to make sure the right filings happen, accurately, before their dates — so you never have to think about it.
The core annual filings
These are the filings most companies and LLPs make each year. Each links to a page that explains it in plain terms. Beyond these, event-based filings (director changes, change in capital or registered office, MOA/AOA amendments) are filed as and when they happen.
Who needs it
- Private limited companies, One Person Companies and public companies — every year
- LLPs — Form 11 and Form 8, every year
- Section 8 (non-profit) companies and other registered entities
- Dormant and pre-revenue companies — the annual filings still apply
The CapEasy way
One accountable team owns your compliance calendar. We map exactly which filings your entity needs, track each due date, prepare the forms with your books and auditor, and file on time — then tell you plainly what’s done and what’s next. No guaranteed outcomes, no fear tactics, and no surprise fees: where a service has a set price it’s shown up front, otherwise we give you a clear quote before any work begins.
Typical annual ROC due dates
A quick reference for a 31 March financial year-end — see the full FY 2025-26 due-date calendarfor concrete dates, late fees and this year’s MCA circulars. Treat it as a guide, not legal advice:
| Filing | Typically due |
|---|---|
| Annual General Meeting (AGM) | Within 6 months of the financial year-end — typically by 30 September |
| AOC-4 (financial statements) | Within 30 days of the AGM |
| MGT-7 / MGT-7A (annual return) | Within 60 days of the AGM |
| ADT-1 (auditor appointment) | Within 15 days of the meeting where the auditor is appointed |
| DIR-3 KYC (director KYC) | Annually, by 30 September |
| DPT-3 (return of deposits) | Annually, by 30 June |
| LLP Form 11 (annual return) | Annually, by 30 May (60 days from the year-end) |
| LLP Form 8 (account & solvency) | Annually, by 30 October |
Your exact due dates depend on your AGM date, company type and the current year’s rules — we confirm them for you and always recommend checking the position on the official MCA portal. CapEasy is a private consultancy and is not affiliated with any government authority.
Free tools
Two calculators that work off the statutory rule rather than a lookup table, so they hold for any financial year. Both are estimators — the MCA portal computes the authoritative figure when you file.
Plain-language guides, form by form
Each guide covers the due date, documents, fees, late-fee maths and the V3 filing steps — verified against current rules and circulars: DIR-3 KYC (the new 3-year rule), AOC-4, MGT-7 / MGT-7A, ADT-1, DPT-3, MSME-1, INC-20A, LLP Form 11 and Form 8 — plus the complete late-fee tables and the CCFS-2026 amnesty running till 31 August 2026.
Event-based filings have their own guides too: DIR-12 and DIR-11 (director changes), INC-22 (registered office), MGT-14 (resolutions), CHG-1 & CHG-4 (charges), SH-7 (authorised capital), PAS-3 (allotments), ADT-3 (auditor resignation) and BEN-2 (significant beneficial owners).
For bigger decisions and stuck situations: closing a company (STK-2), dormant status (MSC-1), changing the company name, AGM deadlines & extension, board meetings & registers, auditor rotation, share transfers (SH-4) and the OPC compliance calendar — plus rescue guides for MCA V3 portal errors, SRN statuses & resubmission, deactivated DINs and condonation of delay (CG-1).
