Overview
What is Post-Incorporation Compliance for Companies?
Once a company is incorporated, the Companies Act requires a series of filings and governance steps — many with tight deadlines in the first few months. Missing them attracts penalties and, in some cases, disqualification of directors.
The early ones include the declaration of commencement of business (INC-20A) within 180 days, appointing the first auditor (ADT-1) within 30 days, issuing share certificates, maintaining statutory registers and completing director KYC. Then come the annual filings (AOC-4, MGT-7/7A), board meetings and the AGM.
We set up and run your post-incorporation compliance so nothing is missed — with everything tracked in your portal.

Official filing
How the MCA portal (mca.gov.in) flow works
Post-incorporation filings — INC-20A, ADT-1, DIR-3 KYC, AOC-4, MGT-7/7A and others — are made on the MCA portal against your company, signed with director DSCs. Each has its own form, deadline and fee.
We prepare, review and file these through the official MCA portal. We don't claim a private API; we keep you compliant by filing accurately and on time.

FAQs
Post-Incorporation Compliance for Companies — frequently asked questions
What is post-incorporation compliance?
The mandatory filings and governance steps a company must complete after incorporation — INC-20A, auditor appointment, share certificates, registers, director KYC and annual filings.
What is INC-20A and when is it due?
The declaration of commencement of business, filed within 180 days of incorporation after the subscribers pay in their share capital. The company can't start business or borrow until it's filed.
When must the first auditor be appointed?
Within 30 days of incorporation, via Form ADT-1. The auditor audits the company's accounts.
What is DIR-3 KYC?
An annual KYC every director with a DIN must complete to keep the DIN active. Missing it deactivates the DIN and attracts a fee.
What annual filings does a company have?
Primarily AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7/7A (annual return), plus board meetings, the AGM and statutory registers — every year, even with no activity.
What happens if I miss these deadlines?
Per-day penalties accumulate, the company faces restrictions (e.g. can't commence business without INC-20A), and prolonged default can disqualify directors.
Do OPCs have the same compliance?
OPCs have a similar but slightly lighter set (e.g. MGT-7A and relaxed meeting rules). We tailor the calendar to your company type.
I've fallen behind — can you help me catch up?
Yes. We file the pending forms, compute the additional fees, and bring your company current, then keep it that way.
Is compliance needed if the company had no business?
Yes. Annual filings and KYC are mandatory even in a dormant or no-activity year.
What do I receive?
All filed forms with acknowledgements, your statutory registers and minutes, and a live compliance calendar in your portal.
