## Why ROC Filing is Non-Negotiable

Every Private Limited Company must file annually with MCA — active or dormant, profit or loss, operations or not.

01

### Mandatory for All Companies

There is no exemption. Even a company with zero turnover or no operations must file MGT-7 and AOC-4 annually to remain compliant.

02

### Protects Directors

Non-filing disqualifies directors from serving on any company's board for 5 years — a serious personal consequence beyond company penalties.

03

### Bank Loans & Tenders

Banks and government tenders verify MCA filing status before approving. Non-compliance can block funding and business opportunities.

04

### Avoid Company Strike-Off

Continuous default in annual filings leads to the company being struck off by ROC — effectively ending its legal existence.

## Legal Framework

ROC annual filings are governed by the Companies Act 2013 with strict deadlines tied to the AGM date.

**Companies Act 2013, Section 92:** Every company must file its Annual Return in Form MGT-7 within 60 days of the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

**Section 137:** Financial statements (Form AOC-4 — balance sheet, P&L, cash flow) must be filed within 30 days of the AGM.

**AGM requirement:** Every company must hold its AGM by 30th September of each year (for companies other than first AGM). This sets the downstream deadlines for AOC-4 and MGT-7.

**Penalty:** ₹100 per day per form for late filing, in addition to fixed penalties on the company and each officer in default. Continued default leads to compounding of offences.
