Compliance should not mean remembering dozens of forms, board meetings and changing deadlines. StartStartup gives founders a structured compliance system covering recurring ROC work, director KYC, corporate records and event-based filings—so you can focus on building the business.
Core MCA/ROC obligations for companies with low activity.
A broader corporate-compliance layer for operating startups.
For startups where fundraising, ESOPs and transaction-driven compliance require closer support.
*Event filings, valuation reports, audit, tax returns, GST returns, bookkeeping, legal opinions, stamp duty and government fees are separately scoped unless expressly included.
Annual ROC filings are only one layer. Depending on your entity, transactions and circumstances, you may also need board meetings, AGM documentation, auditor-related filings, director KYC, registers, event-based MCA filings, tax returns, GST/TDS compliance and other disclosures.
Our approach is not “file two forms once a year”. We first map your company, then maintain a compliance calendar around its actual activities.
The exact scope depends on entity type, size, activity, transactions and applicable thresholds.
AOC-4 / applicable financial-statement filing and MGT-7 / MGT-7A annual return, based on the company's applicable form and status.
RecurringMeeting notices, agendas, minutes, resolutions and AGM documentation aligned with statutory requirements.
RecurringDIR-3 KYC / web-based KYC as applicable, with director-level filing tracking.
Director-levelADT-1 and auditor-related corporate documentation where applicable, plus auditor coordination.
Event / recurringMaintenance support for statutory registers, resolutions and corporate records relevant to the company.
OngoingDirector changes, registered office, share capital, allotments, charges and other corporate events may trigger filings.
As neededSupport around ESOPs, fundraising, share issues, investor reporting and corporate housekeeping.
Startup-focusedOptional coordination around company ITR, GST, TDS and other tax workflows through relevant professionals.
OptionalCatch missed filings, outdated registers, director issues and unresolved MCA events before they become larger problems.
One-time / annualMCA, tax, GST, TDS and transaction-specific deadlines sit in different places.
A company with no revenue or activity can still have statutory obligations.
A director appointment, allotment, office change or charge can create a separate filing requirement.
Minutes, registers, financials, resolutions and SRNs should form one traceable corporate record.
For a typical private limited company, AOC-4 and MGT-7 / MGT-7A form the core annual ROC cycle. Exact forms depend on the entity and circumstances.
Financial statements are filed with the Registrar of Companies in the applicable form. A commonly applicable statutory window is 30 days from the AGM.
The annual return reports prescribed corporate information. A commonly applicable statutory window is 60 days from the AGM.
A founder may begin with two directors and a simple bank account. Six months later there may be investors, preference shares, ESOPs, a new director, an office change or a loan. Each change can have corporate-law consequences.
Share issue, allotment, valuation and corporate records.
Approvals and scheme documentation.
Appointment, resignation, DIN/KYC and MCA filings.
Registered-office documentation and event filing.
ROC, accounting, audit, GST and tax each have different responsibilities. Your proposal should make that visible.
If your company has missed filings, has an inactive DIN, unresolved MCA events or incomplete records, the first step should be a diagnostic.
Inactive, dormant or zero-turnover companies can still have statutory obligations. “Nothing happened” does not automatically mean “nothing needs to be filed”.
Important: Late-filing consequences can be substantial. Applicable additional fees and penalties should always be checked against the relevant form, section, rules and current MCA position.
Tell us your entity type, incorporation date, number of directors and whether the company is active, dormant or fundraising.
