Dormant for OPC under CCFS 2026 is a useful option for One Person Companies that are not carrying on active business but do not want to close permanently. Under the Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026, eligible OPCs can clear pending ROC filings at reduced additional fees and then apply for dormant status.
Many OPCs become inactive after incorporation due to business delays, funding issues, or changes in the founder’s plan. However, even an inactive OPC must meet annual filing requirements until it is legally made dormant or struck off. If filings are ignored, penalties and compliance pressure keep increasing.
Dormant status allows an OPC to legally remain on MCA records while reducing active compliance burden. It is suitable when the owner may use the company again in the future but does not want to continue full operational compliance at present.
The Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026, is a one-time relief scheme introduced to help defaulting companies complete pending filings with concessional additional fees. The scheme gives eligible companies a limited period to regularize delayed filings, update MCA records, and then apply for dormant status or strike off, wherever applicable.
For OPCs, this scheme is useful because many inactive companies may have missed annual filings such as AOC-4, MGT-7A, ADT-1, or other applicable ROC forms. Under CCFS 2026, the OPC can first clear these defaults and then apply for dormant status through Form MSC-1.
The scheme is available from 15 April 2026 to 15 July 2026. OPC owners should use this period carefully because after the scheme closes, normal additional fees, penalties, and enforcement action may apply.
Dormant for OPC under CCFS is suitable for
If the owner is sure that the OPC will never be used again, strike off may be a better option after reviewing the company’s compliance status, liabilities, and MCA filing records.
Applying for dormant status under CCFS 2026 involves more than filing Form MSC-1. Before applying, an OPC must review its pending ROC filings, financial statements, liabilities, compliance history, and eligibility conditions under the scheme. Any errors or incomplete records can lead to delays or resubmission by the ROC.
At Ebizfiling, we help OPC owners evaluate their eligibility, clear pending annual filings, calculate applicable fees under CCFS 2026, prepare required documents, and complete the dormant status application process accurately. Our team also assists with ROC follow-ups to ensure a smooth compliance journey.

In simple words, Ebizfiling makes the Dormant OPC under CCFS process easier by handling compliance review, document preparation, fee calculation, filing, and ROC coordination in one place.
Dormant OPC under CCFS 2026 means regularizing pending ROC filings of an inactive One Person Company under the Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026 and then applying for dormant company status. It is suitable for OPCs that are not operating but may be used again in the future.
CCFS 2026 helps an inactive OPC by allowing it to clear overdue ROC filings with concessional additional fees. Once the pending filings are completed, the OPC can apply for dormant status and reduce future compliance burden.
In most cases, pending filings should be cleared before applying for dormant status. If MCA records are not updated, the ROC may raise queries or reject the application. CCFS 2026 helps clear these defaults at reduced cost.
The scheme is available from 15 April 2026 to 15 July 2026. Eligible OPCs should complete their pending filings and related compliance steps within this window.
Common pending forms include AOC-4 for financial statements, MGT-7A for annual return, ADT-1 for auditor appointment, and other applicable ROC forms. The exact forms depend on the OPC’s filing history.
Yes, the scheme covers pending annual filings, including filings related to FY 2024-25, subject to scheme conditions and applicability.
No, CCFS 2026 does not provide concession on normal filing fees for annual filing forms. The benefit is mainly on additional fees for delayed filings.
A company filing overdue relevant e-forms during the scheme period is required to pay only 10 percent of the additional fee. This can reduce the cost of regularizing delayed ROC filings.
For dormant status under CCFS 2026, the company filing Form MSC-1 is required to pay 50 percent of the normal filing fee applicable under the rules.
Dormant status is better if you may use the OPC again in the future. Strike off is better if you want to close the OPC permanently and have no future business plan for it.
For strike off under CCFS 2026, a company filing Form STK-2 during the scheme period is required to pay 25 percent of the applicable filing fee.
Yes, an OPC with no active business may apply for dormant status if it satisfies MCA conditions, clears pending filings, and has no disqualifying liabilities or disputes.
Yes, a dormant OPC must still file required dormant company returns and maintain basic records. Dormant status reduces compliance burden but does not remove every obligation.
Yes, CCFS 2026 may provide immunity in certain cases if eligible forms are filed before notice or within the permitted period after notice. Immunity may not apply if prosecution or adjudication has already started before filing.
No, a separate form is not required to avail immunity under the scheme. The benefit is linked to eligible filing under CCFS 2026 and the conditions mentioned in the scheme.
Yes, the scheme is intended to help companies regularize multiple pending filings, subject to eligibility and applicable conditions.
If the deadline is missed, the company may lose the benefit of concessional fees and may have to pay normal additional fees and penalties for delayed filings.
If final strike-off action has already been initiated or the company has already applied for strike off before the scheme period, it may not be eligible for the scheme benefit.
A company that already applied for dormant status before the scheme starts may not be eligible to use CCFS 2026 for that purpose. Eligibility should be checked based on MCA records.
Yes, Ebizfiling helps with eligibility checking, pending filing review, fee calculation, document preparation, MSC-1 filing, ROC follow-up, and overall compliance support.
