Annual Filing
Every registered company in India—whether a Private Limited, Public Limited, LLP, OPC, or Section 8 company—must file annual returns and financial statements with the Registrar of Companies (ROC). Non-compliance can lead to heavy penalties, director disqualification, and even company strike-off. Liquetax provides end-to-end annual filing services, ensuring your business stays compliant without stress.
What is Annual Filing?
Annual Filing is the process of submitting a company’s annual return (Form MGT-7/MGT-7A) and financial statements (Form AOC-4) to the MCA every year. These filings disclose shareholding structure, financial performance, and governance compliance, ensuring transparency.
