Why MCA Compliance Matters
Whether you run a tech startup (Pvt Ltd), a consulting partnership (LLP) or a single‑founder venture (OPC), the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) is your corporate watchdog. Missing a filing can result in:
Late fees up to 12× the normal rate
Director disqualification for 5 years
Company strike‑off under Sec 248
Loss of investor confidence & bank lending blocks
Our single‑window compliance suite keeps every deadline, resolution, and register in sync—so your focus stays on scaling, not firefighting ROC notices.

FAQs — Your Top Questions Answered
1. What are the mandatory MCA compliances for a Private Limited Company?
Private Limited Companies must file AOC-4 (financials), MGT-7 (annual return), DIR-3 KYC (for directors), and ADT-1 (auditor appointment). Additional forms like DPT-3 apply if the company has accepted loans or advances.
2. What forms must LLPs file every year?
LLPs are required to file Form 11 (Annual Return) by May 30 and Form 8 (Statement of Account & Solvency) by October 30 each year. DIR-3 KYC is also mandatory for all Designated Partners.
3. Is audit mandatory for all companies and LLPs?
Audit is mandatory for all companies, irrespective of turnover. LLPs need an audit only if their turnover exceeds ₹40 lakhs or capital contribution exceeds ₹25 lakhs.
4. What is the due date for filing DIR-3 KYC?
All directors and designated partners must file DIR-3 KYC annually by 30th September, failing which the DIN will be deactivated by MCA.
5. What is the penalty for late filing of MCA compliance forms?
The penalty is ₹100 per day per form for Private Limited Companies and OPCs, and ₹50 per day per form for LLPs. There is no cap on the late fees.
FAQs — Your Top Questions Answered
6. Can a company or LLP be struck off for non-compliance?
Yes. If an entity fails to file mandatory annual forms for two consecutive financial years, it may be struck off under Section 248 of the Companies Act or LLP Act.
7. What is the difference in compliance between OPC and Pvt Ltd?
An OPC is exempt from holding AGMs and can file simplified forms like MGT-7A, while a Pvt Ltd company must hold an AGM and file MGT-7, AOC-4, and other standard filings.
8. Do newly incorporated companies also need to do annual filings?
Yes. Even if no operations occurred, the company or LLP must file nil returns and maintain basic compliance from the year of incorporation.
9. Is ROC compliance separate from Income Tax compliance?
Yes. MCA (ROC) compliance is governed by the Companies Act or LLP Act, while income tax filings (ITR-6 for Pvt Ltd, ITR-5 for LLPs) are governed by the Income Tax Act. Both must be done independently.
10. How can your firm help with MCA compliance?
