Ministry of corporate affairs issued a notification announcing that all the E-Forms that are filed by the companies under the STP (Straight Through Processes) shall be under scrutiny of the Government directly. For this purpose the MCA has also set up a Central Scrutiny Centre (CSC) for carrying out the scrutiny of STP E-Forms filed under the Companies Act 2013 by the companies.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) is said to have taken this step to take the advantage of artificial intelligence (AI) to understand the complexity of the corporate compliance and take action upon the companies and professionals that are at default.
This notification came in to force from 23rd March 2021. Hence, All the STP (Straight Through Process) E-Forms filed with ROC are now set under the scrutiny of the Government. Now it would be a benefit for the fillers as the wait of indefinite period which was taken by the Registrar after filing the forms, will get over and the time limit shall be specified for scrutiny of STP E-Forms. This will bring a certainty and clarity in the process of STP E-Forms filings.
