Stay compliant with the Companies Act, 2013 all year round. Our company secretarial services cover board and general meetings, minutes and statutory registers, annual and event-based ROC filings, director KYC, secretarial audit support and FEMA reporting, for private, public and foreign-owned companies and LLPs.
To operate with confidence in a competitive environment, a company must manage and reduce the risk of corporate non-compliance.
The Companies Act, 2013 requires every company to hold meetings, keep minutes and registers, and file a steady stream of annual and event-based forms with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Missed or incorrect filings lead to additional fees and penalties for the company and its officers. Prolonged defaults can lead to directors being disqualified or the company being struck off the register.
Our experience, combined with structured compliance processes, guides you through regulatory requirements and changes across functions and locations, so you avoid serious legal consequences and keep your records investor- and audit-ready.
We assess your current compliance status, including past filings, registers, minutes, director KYC and charges, and identify gaps and penalties to regularise. This is useful before due diligence, fundraising, M&A or a corporate reorganisation.
We draft notices, agendas and resolutions, help you hold board, committee and general meetings in line with Secretarial Standards SS-1 and SS-2, and maintain minute books.
We maintain registers of members, directors and KMP, charges, contracts, and loans and investments, along with share certificates and other statutory records.
We file financial statements (AOC-4), annual returns (MGT-7/7A), auditor appointment (ADT-1), deposit returns (DPT-3), MSME returns, director KYC, and LLP Forms 8 and 11.
We handle changes in directors and KMP, share allotments and transfers, charge creation and satisfaction, registered office changes, and amendments to the MOA and AOA. For major events, see our corporate legal advisory.
We support the secretarial audit (MR-3) where applicable, the Board's report, related party approvals, independent director compliance, and governance policies.
