Question
I run a small Pvt Ltd and want to know by when I must file my financial statements and annual return with the ROC each year.
Answer
AOC-4 is due within 30 days of your AGM, and MGT-7 (or MGT-7A for small companies and OPCs) within 60 days of the AGM. Since the AGM is normally held by 30 September, the usual deadlines fall around 29 October (AOC-4) and 28 November (MGT-7). AOC-4 files your audited financial statements; MGT-7 files your annual return. Late filing attracts an additional fee of Rs 100 per day per form with no upper cap, so track both carefully. Plan every recurring date with our compliance calendar.
