Annual compliance calendar for private limited companies

Compliance doesn't stop at incorporation

Getting your Certificate of Incorporation is day one, not the finish line. Every private limited company has a recurring set of annual filings, and missing any one of them carries real penalties — starting at ₹50,000 per filing and rising the longer it's outstanding.

The core annual filings

MGT-7 (annual return) and AOC-4 (financial statements) are filed with the ROC after your AGM. DIR-3 KYC keeps every director's details current with the MCA and must be filed even if nothing has changed. Income tax returns are due separately, on the standard corporate tax calendar.

The AGM itself

Private limited companies must hold an Annual General Meeting within six months of financial year-end, with minutes and resolutions properly recorded — these documents matter as much during a funding round's due diligence as the filings themselves.

How we keep you on track

Every Compound by Chop Finance registration includes 12 months of compliance alerts, sent by WhatsApp and email ahead of each deadline, so nothing depends on a director remembering a date on a spreadsheet.
