Overview
Like AOC-4, late MGT-7 filing costs Rs.100 per day with no cap. We compile the shareholding and directorship data, prepare the return and file it correctly against your statutory registers.
Small companies and OPCs file the simpler MGT-7A, which we handle too.
What's included
- Compilation of members/directors data
- Preparation of MGT-7 or MGT-7A
- Reconciliation with statutory registers
- ROC filing & acknowledgement
How we approach it
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between MGT-7 and MGT-7A?
MGT-7A is the abridged annual return for OPCs and small companies; other companies file MGT-7.
When is MGT-7 due?
Within 60 days of the AGM.
Do I need a CS certification (MGT-8)?
Certain companies must attach a Practising CS certificate (MGT-8) — we provide this where required.
What if there were changes in shareholding during the year?
These are captured in the annual return along with the closing position as of the financial year-end.
Is MGT-7A available to all companies?
No — it's specifically for One Person Companies and small companies as defined under the Companies Act; other companies file the full MGT-7.
What penalty applies for late MGT-7 filing?
An additional government fee accrues per day of delay, similar to AOC-4, with no upper cap.
