Private limited company banana relatively easy ho gaya hai, lekin usko compliant rakhna continuous responsibility hai. Har saal kuch basic compliance karne hote hain, warna late fees, penalties, ya strike-off ka risk hota hai.
Common annual requirements:
- At least ek Annual General Meeting (AGM) within prescribed time,
- Financial statements prepare, board approve, aur regulatory authority ko file karna,
- Annual return jisme directors, shareholders, share transfers, etc. ka summary hota hai,
- Board meetings ka minimum count aur proper minutes maintain karna,
- Statutory registers update – members, directors, charges, etc.
Agar auditors, secretarial auditors ya internal auditors required hain, unki appointment/rotation rules follow karna hota hai. Related-party transactions, loans and advances, or high remuneration items me extra compliance ho sakti hai.
Non-compliance initially late fees se start hoti hai, but prolonged default se directors personally penalties, disqualification, ya company ko “inactive” treat karne tak baat pahunch sakti hai.
Best practice: ek reliable CA/CS firm ya in-house compliance person rakho, calendar-based system banao, aur filings last week pe mat chhodo. Company sirf brand name nahi; ye legal entity hai jisko har saal proof dena padta hai ki wo law ke hisaab se alive aur healthy hai.
