Compliance Services are essential for every registered business in India. Whether you operate a Private Limited Company, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), One Person Company (OPC), or any other corporate entity, you are required to file periodic returns and maintain statutory records as mandated by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Income Tax Department, and GST authorities.
Non-compliance can result in heavy penalties, director disqualification, and even company strike-off. The compliance framework under the Companies Act, 2013 and LLP Act, 2008 includes annual filings, event-based filings, and ongoing statutory obligations. Staying compliant ensures your business maintains its active status, builds creditor trust, and remains eligible for government tenders and bank loans.
Compliance services encompass a wide range of activities including ROC Annual Filings (Forms AOC-4, MGT-7), Director KYC (DIR-3 KYC), Board and General Meetings, Statutory Audit, Income Tax Returns, GST Returns, TDS Filings, and maintenance of Statutory Registers. Each filing has specific due dates, and missing them attracts additional fees and penalties.
At IncorpX, we provide comprehensive Compliance Services for businesses across India. Our team of expert Chartered Accountants (CAs) and Company Secretaries (CSs) ensures timely filings, accurate documentation, and complete peace of mind. We handle the complexities so you can focus on growing your business.
What are Compliance Services?
Compliance Services refer to the professional assistance provided to businesses to meet their legal and regulatory obligations. These services ensure that companies adhere to the rules and regulations set by governing bodies like the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Income Tax Department, GST Council, and other statutory authorities.
Every registered entity in India has certain mandatory compliances that must be fulfilled within prescribed timelines. Failure to comply results in penalties, legal notices, and in severe cases, prosecution of directors. Compliance services help businesses navigate these complex requirements efficiently.
The scope of compliance services includes Secretarial Compliance (MCA filings, board meetings, AGM), Tax Compliance (Income Tax, GST, TDS), Accounting & Bookkeeping (financial statements, audits), and Event-Based Compliance (change in directors, registered office, share capital). Professional compliance partners ensure nothing is missed.
Tax Compliance:
Income tax returns, advance tax, GST returns, TDS/TCS filings, and tax audits.
Accounting Services:
Bookkeeping, financial statement preparation, statutory audit support, and MIS reports.
Event-Based Compliance:
Filings related to changes in company structure, directors, share capital, or registered office.
Did You Know?
Over 1.5 lakh companies were struck off by MCA in the last 3 years for non-compliance with annual filing requirements. Additionally, 3 lakh+ directors have been disqualified for failure to file DIR-3 KYC or annual returns. Staying compliant is not optional - it's essential for business survival.
Types of Compliance Services:
Business compliance in India can be broadly categorized into different types based on
the nature of obligations and the regulatory authorities involved. Understanding these
categories helps businesses prioritize and plan their compliance calendar effectively.
Annual Compliance:
These are recurring obligations that must be fulfilled every financial year. Examples include
filing Annual Returns (MGT-7), Financial Statements (AOC-4), Director KYC (DIR-3 KYC),
Income Tax Returns, and conducting Annual General Meetings (AGM).
Periodic Compliance:
These are compliance requirements that occur at regular intervals throughout the year.
Examples include quarterly board meetings, monthly/quarterly GST returns, TDS filings,
and advance tax payments.
Event-Based Compliance:
These filings are triggered by specific corporate events. Examples include change in
directors (DIR-12), change in registered office (INC-22), allotment of shares (PAS-3),
change in company name, and incorporation of subsidiaries.
One-Time Compliance:
Certain compliances are required only once or upon specific triggers. Examples include
commencement of business filing (INC-20A), appointment of first auditor, and
DPIIT registration for startups.
A comprehensive compliance management approach covers all these categories, ensuring
your business remains penalty-free and audit-ready throughout the year.

FAQs on Compliance Services
Managing business compliance in India can be complex, but with the right guidance, it becomes manageable. We've compiled answers to the most frequently asked questions about compliance services to help you understand your obligations and stay penalty-free.
These FAQs cover everything from annual filings to tax compliance, helping business owners make informed decisions about their regulatory requirements.
Annual compliance for a Private Limited Company includes filing Form AOC-4 (financial statements), Form MGT-7 (annual return), conducting AGM, holding minimum 4 board meetings, filing DIR-3 KYC for directors, and submitting Income Tax Return.
Missing filing deadlines attracts penalties:
MCA Forms: ₹100/day penalty per form
DIR-3 KYC: ₹5,000 late fee + DIN deactivation
ITR: ₹5,000-₹10,000 late fee + interest
Continued non-compliance can lead to company strike-off
Yes, even dormant or non-operating companies must file annual returns and financial statements. The only difference is you file NIL returns. Non-filing leads to penalties and eventual strike-off by MCA.
DIR-3 KYC is an annual KYC filing for all directors holding a Director Identification Number (DIN). Every director must file this form by September 30 each year to keep their DIN active. Failure to file results in ₹5,000 late fee and DIN deactivation.
LLPs must file:
Form 11: Annual Return (by May 30)
Form 8: Statement of Accounts & Solvency (by October 30)
Income Tax Return: ITR-5 (by July 31/October 31)
DIR-3 KYC: For designated partners with DIN
Yes, all Private Limited Companies and OPCs must appoint a statutory auditor (Chartered Accountant) within 30 days of incorporation. The auditor conducts the annual audit and signs off on financial statements filed with MCA.
Form INC-20A is the Declaration of Commencement of Business. It must be filed within 180 days of incorporation after depositing the subscribed share capital in the company's bank account. Without this, the company cannot commence business operations.
Private Limited Companies: Minimum 4 board meetings per year with a maximum gap of 120 days between meetings. One Person Company (OPC): Minimum 2 board meetings per year with a 90-day gap. LLP: Board meetings are not mandatory.
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) must be held within 6 months from the end of the financial year, i.e., by September 30. The first AGM can be held within 9 months from the close of the first financial year.
GST registered companies must file:
GSTR-1: Outward supplies (Monthly/Quarterly)
GSTR-3B: Summary return with tax payment (Monthly/Quarterly)
Yes, MCA can strike off companies that have not filed annual returns for 2 consecutive years or have not been carrying on any business for 2 years. Strike-off results in the company losing its legal status.
If DIR-3 KYC is not filed by September 30, the DIN is marked as deactivated. To reactivate, you must file DIR-3 KYC with a late fee of ₹5,000. Deactivated DIN prevents the director from signing any MCA forms.
Statutory registers are mandatory records maintained by companies including Register of Members, Register of Directors, Register of Charges, Minutes Books, etc. They are required for audits, MCA inspections, and prove corporate governance.
Yes, DPIIT-recognized startups enjoy certain relaxations:
Exemption from angel tax under Section 56(2)(viib)
Self-certification for labor and environmental laws
Faster exit in case of failure
Tax holiday under Section 80-IAC for 3 consecutive years
Annual compliance costs depend on the entity type and complexity. At IncorpX, basic annual compliance packages start from ₹2,999 for small companies. This includes ROC filings, director KYC, and basic compliance support.
Companies must preserve records as follows:
Books of accounts: 8 years from the relevant financial year
Board meeting minutes: Permanently
Statutory registers: Permanently
Tax records: 7 years from end of relevant assessment year
Yes, directors can be disqualified under Section 164(2) of the Companies Act if the company fails to file financial statements or annual returns for 3 consecutive years. Disqualified directors cannot be appointed in any company for 5 years.
Event-based compliance refers to filings triggered by specific corporate events such as:
Change in directors (DIR-12)
Change in registered office (INC-22)
Allotment of shares (PAS-3)
Change in authorized capital (SH-7)
Creation of charge on assets (CHG-1)
Yes, if a company makes payments that attract TDS (such as salary, professional fees, rent, contractor payments), it must deduct TDS, deposit it with the government, and file quarterly TDS returns (Forms 24Q and 26Q).
IncorpX provides comprehensive compliance support including:
