Closing Company Online India 

All You Need to Know

When a company in India is no longer carrying out business, it must be closed through the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Simply stopping operations does not end the company’s legal responsibilities. The process of company closure online ensures that directors and shareholders are released from compliance requirements, penalties, and liabilities.

This is done through Form STK-2, which is filed electronically with MCA. By completing this legal strike-off process, the company’s name is removed from government records and the entity officially ceases to exist.

Step by Step Guide to Company Closure Online

What is Company Closing? 

Company closing means striking off the name of a registered company from the records of the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Even if the company has stopped operations, directors must file for closure using Form STK-2 under Section 248 of the Companies Act, 2013.

This protects directors and shareholders from continuing obligations like annual filings, audits, and tax compliance. With MCA’s online system, closing company in India has become faster and simpler, provided all dues, liabilities, and pending returns are cleared.
