Process
How the service works
The workflow is built to be predictable: document collection, legal review, filing, and post-filing follow-through.
Map your compliance calendar
We map your financial year end, AGM date, and outstanding filings to build the annual MCA calendar for your company.
Collect the year's records
We gather financial statements, registers, meeting minutes, and director KYC data and check them for gaps.
Draft the filings
We prepare the AOC-4, MGT-7, DIR-3 KYC, and any event-based forms so the board can review and sign quickly.
Submit and track
We submit each form on the MCA portal, track acknowledgements, and handle any SRN-linked queries or corrections.
Hand over the compliance trail
You get a closure note with filed SRNs, register updates, and the next quarter's reminders.
AEO summary
Company compliance is the year-round MCA calendar for a Private Limited company — AOC-4 and MGT-7 annual filings, DIR-3 KYC, statutory registers, board minutes, and event-based filings run by a CA so nothing lapses.
Why compliance is a calendar, not a one-off
A Private Limited company's obligations repeat every financial year: the annual return under s.92, financial statements under s.137, the AGM under s.96, and DIR-3 KYC for each director. When these are tracked as a single calendar, the work is predictable and each filing has a due date — not a surprise.
Event-based filings add to the calendar: a resolution that needs MGT-14 under s.117, a change in directors, an increase in authorised capital, or a charge on assets. Each of these has its own form and timeline, and each leaves a trace that banks, investors, and diligence teams will look at.
- • AOC-4 within 30 days of the AGM (s.137)
- • MGT-7 annual return within 60 days of the AGM (s.92)
- • DIR-3 KYC for every director (Rule 12A)
- • Statutory registers kept current (s.88)
What skipping this costs the company
Missed filings attract an additional fee under s.403 of the Companies Act 2013, and the late fee compounds the longer the filing stays pending. Beyond fees, a company with an incomplete record trail struggles the moment it needs a bank loan, an investor, or a certificate from the ROC.
Our role is to make the calendar run itself: we draft, file, track, and remind, so the founder's job is approving documents on time — not remembering which form is due when.
- • No avoidable additional fees under s.403
- • A clean record trail for loans, investors, and diligence
- • Every director's KYC current, so the company can always transact
Government fees
Fee breakdown
| Item | Fee | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MCA / registrar filing | As per MCA schedule | Filing fees for AOC-4, MGT-7, and event forms depend on authorised capital and the Companies (Registration Offices and Fees) Rules 2014. |
| Additional fee on late filing | Applies after due date | Late filings attract an additional fee under s.403 of the Companies Act 2013 — filing on time avoids it entirely. |
Timeline
Typical turnaround
Typical timeline usually means a annual turnaround, assuming documents are complete and any board or shareholder approvals are already in place.
MCA filing fees depend on the form, authorised capital, and any late fee or additional fee that applies.
