What is the Annual Compliance for Private Company?

A Private Company is a unique entity that needs to stay active by filing regular reports with the MCA. Each financial year, companies are required to file an annual return and audited financial statements with the MCA, regardless of turnover or transaction volume. Failure to comply with these annual compliances can lead to the company's name being removed from the RoC register and its directors being disqualified. The MCA has taken proactive measures to address non-compliance issues and ensure that companies meet their filing obligations. The due dates for annual filing depend on the date of the Annual General Meeting, and both forms report the activities and financial data for the relevant financial year.


Benefits of Annual Compliance

Raising Company’s Credibility

In order to maintain credibility, it is essential for businesses to comply with the law. The annual return filing date for a company can be found on the MCA portal's Master Data. Compliance is a major factor in measuring the credibility of an organization, as it is necessary for government tenders, loan approvals, and other similar purposes.

Attract Investors

When a company wants to attract investors, those investors usually want to see all the financial records and data before they make up their minds. They can get that info by contacting the company directly or by checking the MCA portal. The investors prefer to deal with companies that have a good history of following the rules and meeting their annual compliance obligations.

Maintain Active Status and avoid penalties

If a company continuously fails to file its annual return, it will be categorized as default and will incur heavy penalties. The company may also be declared defunct or removed from the RoC register, and the directors may be disqualified and barred from further appointments. Since July 2018, a penalty of ₹100 per day will be charged for each day of delay until the date of filing.
