The Register of Companies or ROC is the main authority that is regulated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). It administers the registration of all companies and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) in India under the Companies Act, 1956 and Companies Act, 2013.

Any information about the company, ranging from appointments and managing directors to the winding up of the company, should be sent to the ROC. If a company passes any resolution, it is a must to share with the ROC within 30 days from the date of passing it.

What Is ROC Filing?

ROC filing is the filing of a company’s audited financial statements and annual returns to the ROC authority.

Benefits of ROC filings

Explicit the Financial Position

The consolidated compliance of all accounts of the company helps in annual returns filing for the entire year. It helps in analyzing where the company stands in view of profit or loss (overall financial condition).

Shows the Company is Up & Running

Being regular with these filings sends the message that the company is up and running. The company’s up and running condition is automatically visible in the current books of the government.

As being failed to provide annual filings for a long term, the ROC cuts off the name of the company from its records.

No Penalty

In case of no filing, the ROC authority may penalize the company. Timely filings avoid such penalties. Besides, the appropriate annual compliance prevents any legal problems or complications.
