OPC Compliance: Annual Filing Notes and Document Checklist with Ebizfiling 

At Ebizfiling, we help One Person Companies (OPCs) in India meet all MCA annual compliance requirements like AOC-4, MGT-7A, DIR-3 KYC, and DPT-3. Our team tracks deadlines, files forms accurately, and ensures proper record maintenance so OPCs stay compliant, penalty-free, and active throughout the year.

Important Notes for OPC Annual Filing 

• The professional fees mentioned are exclusive of penalties and taxes, if any.

• DPT-3 (Return of Deposits) is not part of the standard package, as applicability is confirmed after preparing financials.

• Upon payment confirmation, our designated Digital Onboarding Specialist will connect with you to guide you through our digital onboarding procedure. Digital onboarding with Ebizfiling is the process by which we obtain your consent to proceed with the necessary tasks.

• CS Certification on Form MGT-7, if applicable, is not included in the package.

• Extra charges apply if accounting entries, authorized capital, or turnover exceed the mentioned limits. Accounting transactions include entries related to bank account, TDS, GST, cash transactions, and purchase and sales invoices.

• To file the DIR-3 KYC for a current financial year, the KYC for the previous year must already be completed. If the prior year’s filing isn’t done, a penalty of ₹5,000 per director for DIN activation is charged by ministry which is to be born by client at actuals. No new filings can be processed until the Director Identification Number (DIN) is activated by completing the pending KYC and paying the penalty.

• The Auditor appointment must be completed within 15 days of the AGM. In case of existing companies, NOC and SRN of ADT-3 filed by the previous auditor will be required(not applicable to newly incorporated companies where no first auditor has been appointed).

• We are committed to completing your filings accurately and on time. To support this, we kindly request you to share the required documents with us well before the due dates. Your timely cooperation will help us serve you better and avoid any unnecessary late fees.

• Director Regularization charges are not included in the package.

• Since the MCA portal often updates its forms (such as AOC-4 and MGT-7A), additional details or documents may be required during filing. We will guide you if this happens so your filing stays on track.

• If DSC is part of the package, kindly note that DSC associate and processing fees are included in our package but government fees will be payable by client at actuals on portal directly. Our DSC associate will guide you with the process wherever needed— please complete it and make complete it within 1–2 days.

• We’ll proceed with your respective form filing availed by you once onboarding and document verification are complete. In case of any website technical issues or documents issues or if the statutory due date is near/has passed, applicable late fees (if any) will be payable by the client. Our team will guide you throughout to ensure smooth filing.

• If you choose to avail only specific services from the package, kindly note that Ebizfiling will not be responsible for any missed due dates or penalties related to services not opted for. We request you to connect with us well in advance of the due date to ensure timely processing and smooth compliance.

• DIR-3 KYC is applicable in the following cases:
  • Re-activation of DIN
  • Any change in mobile number, email ID, or residential address must be updated within 30 days through DIR-3 KYC Web along with the prescribed fee. (In case of any other change in DIN Form DIR-6 will be applicable)
  • Directors holding a DIN as on 31 March of a financial year will now be required to file DIR-3 KYC Web once every three financial years, instead of annually.
