ROC Filings in Hyderabad: The Annual Compliance You Must Not Miss
Every company and LLP in Hyderabad must file with the ROC each year — or face ₹100/day penalties with no cap. Here are the forms, the due dates, and how to stay clear of trouble.
Registering your company was the easy part. Keeping it compliant with the Registrar of Companies (ROC), year after year, is where most businesses quietly slip — and the penalties for slipping are unforgiving. Here is what your company owes the ROC, and by when.
What are ROC filings?
Every company and LLP registered in India must file certain returns with the Registrar of Companies each year — regardless of whether it did any business. These filings report your financials, your management, and your continued existence.
Annual ROC filings for a company
| Form | What it is | Due (generally) |
|---|---|---|
| AOC-4 | Financial statements | Within 30 days of the AGM |
| MGT-7 / MGT-7A | Annual return | Within 60 days of the AGM |
| ADT-1 | Auditor appointment | Within 15 days of the AGM |
| DIR-3 KYC | Director KYC | By 30 September each year |
The AGM itself must generally be held within six months of the financial year end — by 30 September for a year ending 31 March.
Annual filings for an LLP
| Form | What it is | Due (generally) |
|---|---|---|
| Form 11 | Annual return | By 30 May |
| Form 8 | Statement of account and solvency | By 30 October |
(Exact due dates can shift with your AGM date or government extensions — confirm for your entity.)
What happens if you miss a deadline?
This is the part that hurts. Late ROC filing attracts an additional fee of ₹100 per day, per form — with no upper cap. Miss a couple of forms for a year and the penalty runs into tens of thousands. Prolonged default can also lead to the company being marked inactive and its directors being disqualified.
Why hand ROC compliance to a firm
ROC filings are deadline-driven and easy to forget in a busy year. Based in Kondapur/Hitech City, ComplianceKart tracks every due date for your company or LLP and files on time — so a missed form never turns into a five-figure penalty.
FAQ
Do I have to file with the ROC even if my company had no business? Yes. Annual filings are mandatory even for a dormant or zero-revenue company.
What is the penalty for late ROC filing? ₹100 per day, per form, with no maximum limit — which is why delays get expensive fast.
Are LLP filings different from company filings? Yes — LLPs file Form 11 and Form 8, on different due dates from a company.
Can late filing get my directors disqualified? Prolonged non-filing can lead to director disqualification, so it is not worth the risk.
