Private Limited Annual Compliance in India 

About Our Service

What is Private Limited Annual Compliance in India? 

Private Limited Annual Compliance in India refers to the set of mandatory filings and disclosures every private limited company must complete each financial year under the Companies Act, 2013. These include filing the Annual Return (Form MGT-7/MGT-7A) and Financial Statements (Form AOC-4) with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). The purpose of these compliances is to report the company’s financial performance, shareholding pattern, and management details to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Timely annual compliance ensures legal standing, avoids penalties, and keeps the company status “Active” on the MCA portal.

 Who Needs to File Annual Compliance for a Private Limited Company? 

  • Every company registered under the Companies Act, 2013 as a Private Limited Company must file annual compliance, irrespective of its business activity or turnover.

  • Even if the company did not carry out any business during the financial year, it is still legally required to file annual returns with the ROC.

  • Newly incorporated companies must also file their first annual return after completing one financial year from the date of incorporation.

  • Both small private companies and subsidiaries of foreign entities must comply with MCA annual filing requirements.

  • Non-filing can result in heavy penalties and disqualification of directors under Section 164 of the Companies Act.
