Key Filings

Every company must file AOC-4 (financial statements) and MGT-7 (annual return) within the prescribed timelines. Missing these deadlines attracts penalties starting at Rs.100 per day of default, with no upper cap in many cases.

Annual Compliance Checklist

Beyond the annual filings, companies must hold at least four board meetings per year, maintain proper statutory registers, and file event-based forms like MGT-14 within 30 days of passing certain resolutions. Kapitalyze automates these reminders so your team never misses a deadline.
