📌 Company Amendment

Ensure Your Business Stays Legally Compliant & Structurally Updated

As your trusted Company Secretary (CS) service provider, we assist you in making timely and accurate amendments to your company’s legal structure and statutory records, as per the Companies Act, 2013. Whether you're updating your company name, registered office, directors, or capital structure — we help you ensure full compliance while keeping the Registrar of Companies (ROC) informed.

What is a Company Amendment?

A company amendment refers to any official change made in the details or structure of a company that has been registered under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). These changes must be filed and approved by the Registrar of Companies (RoC) to remain legally valid.

Why Company Amendments Are Important?

From the client’s point of view:

✔️ Helps reflect the current structure and intentions of your company

✔️ Avoids legal penalties or non-compliance notices from MCA

✔️ Maintains transparency with stakeholders and government authorities

✔️ Ensures smooth operations during audits, funding, or expansion

📂 Types of Company Amendments We Handle

Here’s how we assist businesses with all necessary legal modifications:

📋 Mandatory ROC Forms for Company Amendments

Each amendment requires specific ROC forms. Clients often miss this technical part, so it’s good to list them clearly:

⚠️ Penalties for Non-Compliance

If amendments are not filed on time, the company and its officers may face:

₹100 per day per form for late filings

Notices or adjudication proceedings by ROC

Disqualification of directors in serious non-compliance cases

Make sure your clients understand: "Timely filing saves legal trouble and maintains a clean compliance record."

Documents Required from Client

You should also list typical documents clients need to provide, like:

Board resolution or special resolution

ID/address proofs of directors or KMPs

Modified MOA/AOA (if applicable)

Proof of new registered office (like utility bill or lease agreement)

Digital Signatures (DSC) of directors

Consent letters or declarations

When Should Clients File an Amendment?

Clients often don’t know when to update the ROC. Clarify that amendments should be filed whenever:

There is any structural/legal/business change

There is a change that reflects in company’s MOA/AOA

They hire or remove a director, auditor, or CFO/CEO

They relocate their office to a new address

They want to raise capital or issue shares

They switch business activities or expand objects
