Keeping Your Company’s Legal Life in Order
The Companies Act, 2013 regulates a company’s life in granular detail: how boards meet, how money moves between group entities, how shares are issued, how directors are appointed and paid. Its enforcement machinery is automated and unsympathetic; late fees accrue per day, some without cap, and lapses can disqualify directors or stall a fundraise at the worst possible moment.
Most companies do not violate the Act deliberately. They violate it by not noticing. Our corporate law practice exists so that nothing about your company’s legal life goes unnoticed.
Annual ROC Compliance
Annual returns (MGT-7/7A), financial statement filings (AOC-4), director KYC (DIR-3), auditor appointments (ADT-1) and the upkeep of statutory registers and minutes. We run this on a calendar, with confirmations to you as each filing lands.
Event-Based Filings and Corporate Actions
Every significant corporate event triggers a filing clock: share allotments, transfers, charge creation and satisfaction, director changes, registered office shifts, alterations to capital or to the MOA and AOA. We handle the resolutions, forms and timelines so the action you took is the action on record.
Board and General Meeting Support
Notices, agendas, resolutions and minutes drafted correctly; meeting frequency, quorum and disclosure requirements tracked; and practical guidance to directors on what they are approving and why it matters.
Advisory on Companies Act Questions
Written, provision-backed opinions on the questions boards actually face: related party transactions, loans and investments under Section 186, deposits, managerial remuneration, director duties and liability. Answers you can minute, with the homework attached.
Foreign Companies: Subsidiary, Branch and Liaison Offices
Incorporation of Indian subsidiaries of foreign companies and the establishment of branch and liaison offices in India, including the RBI/AD-bank route, post-set-up registrations and the annual compliance these structures carry.
