What is ROC Annual Filing?

ROC Annual Filing is the process of submitting your company's financial statements and compliance documents to the Registrar of Companies (ROC) under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). It is mandated by the Companies Act, 2013 for every registered company in India whether it is a Private Limited Company, One Person Company (OPC), or LLP.

These filings provide the government with an annual snapshot of your company's financial health, ownership structure, directorship, and operational status. Missing this annual obligation can attract heavy penalties and even lead to company strike-off.

Registering my company with StartUp Movers has been an excellent experience. Your team is prompt, supportive, and very reasonable. I will definitely recommend your services to anyone looking to register a new company. All the best — keep up the great work!

Just a note for future clients: there are a few mandatory post-incorporation compliances that require additional fees and are not covered in the initial incorporation package. So be prepared for that in advance.

I had an absolutely seamless experience registering my business with Razorize Pay, and a huge part of that was thanks to Reena Srivas. From the very beginning, Reena was incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure the process was smooth and stress-free.

She walked me through each step with clarity, answered all my questions patiently (no matter how small), and ensured everything was handled promptly. What really stood out was how efficient and organized the entire registration process was — I never felt lost or confused, which is rare when dealing with legal and financial paperwork!

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about annual ROC compliances and filing timelines.

Yes, under the Companies Act, 2013, ROC filing is mandatory for every company even if there are no transactions. You must still file AOC-4 and MGT-7 annually with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

Late ROC filings attract a penalty of Rs. 100 per day per form with no maximum cap for AOC-4 and MGT-7 under the Companies Act, 2013, as enforced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

AOC-4 is the filing of financial statements such as the balance sheet, profit and loss account, and auditor report, while MGT-7 or MGT-7A is the filing of the annual return containing company and shareholding details.

If a director's DIN becomes inactive, usually due to non-filing of DIR-3 KYC, they can no longer act as a director or sign ROC filings until the DIN is reactivated.

Consult with a Startup Movers advisor, share the documents from the checklist provided by our team, review and sign the prepared forms digitally, and then we complete the final ROC submission for you.

For Private Limited Companies, INC-20A, INC-22, ADT-1, AOC-4, MGT-7 or MGT-7A, DPT-3, MSME Form-1, AGM, board meetings, DIR-3 KYC, DIR-12, MGT-14, income tax filings, and directors report requirements are among the key annual and event-based compliances.

There is no one fixed due date for AOC-04. It must be filed within 30 days of the AGM.

There is no one fixed due date for MGT-07. It must be filed within 60 days of the AGM.

There is no fixed due date for INC-20A and INC-22. INC-20A must be filed within 180 days of incorporation, while INC-22 must be filed within 30 days of incorporation with MCA.

Yes, there are multiple annual compliances for companies incorporated in India under the Companies Act, 2013, and they must complete ROC filing every year before the due date.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) is the central government ministry responsible for corporate law and policy in India, while the Registrar of Companies (ROC) is the office under MCA responsible for company registry, incorporation, and compliance monitoring.

If companies file late or do not file annual returns at all, the government can impose daily fines, take legal action, and remove them from the official company list.
