Every company registered in India, whether Private Limited, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), One Person Company (OPC), or any other, is required to comply with the annual ROC (Registrar of Companies) compliance regulations. Filing ROC returns and maintaining accurate records is crucial to avoid penalties and ensure smooth business operations. WeIncept provides end-to-end ROC annual compliance services to keep your company in good standing with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA).
What is ROC Annual Compliance?
ROC Annual Compliance involves filing necessary forms and documents with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) under the Companies Act, 2013, or LLP Act, 2008. It is mandatory for every registered company to file annual returns and financial statements, regardless of whether it’s operational or not. Non-compliance can lead to heavy penalties and even the disqualification of directors.
