Service Overview

Every company registered in India must maintain an official address registered with the ROC. When the company’s address changes, whether within the same city, state, or to a different state, it must update the records with the concerned ROC. The process involves board resolutions, filing specific forms, and receiving ROC approval, depending on the type of change.

‍Challenges of Filing For ROC Change / Address Change

Complexity in Address Change Across States
Changing the registered office from one state to another requires approval from both ROCs. This includes altering the company’s Memorandum of Association (MoA), which adds extra procedural steps and time.
Multiple Approvals and Documentation Requirements
Address change mandates resolutions, utility bills, NOCs, and ROC forms like INC-22 and MGT-14. Missing or incorrect documentation can result in rejection or delays by the MCA.
Ensuring Timely Compliance and Avoiding Penalties
The timeline to update the address post-change is limited. Failure to comply within the prescribed days can attract fines and impact legal standing.
Coordination with Government Portals and ROC
Accurate form filings and seamless coordination with ROC and government portals are required. Inexperience may result in missteps or incorrect filings that delay the update.

Advantages of ROC Change / Address Change

Updating ROC ensures legal notices reach the correct address and prevents compliance risks or government communication gaps.
Smoothens business operations and reporting
A registered address change helps maintain accurate statutory records, improving transparency for clients, stakeholders, and regulators.
Avoids penalties and government scrutiny
Timely change filing avoids late penalties or unwanted attention from MCA authorities during audits or compliance checks.
Facilitates transparency and trust building
Publicly updating business addresses builds trust among vendors, investors, and customers, especially during inter-state expansion.
