Section 560 - striking off name from RoC

please see the procedure here..

/forum/details.asp?mod_id=62092

Thanks Adarsh...But, in our case, since the company has not opened the bank account, they cannot appoint the auditors, hence they cannot have any audited financials (which is essential to be produced in s.560 case).

Any idea what to do now?

Vasu...!!

No prob even if bank account were not opened.. just appoint an auditor..

n follow the procedure as mentioned in that forum...

• A Company can be wound up under section 560 of the Companies Act, 1956. For this, the Company should be defunct company i.e. a dormant company with NIL Assets and NIL Liabilities i.e. all the assets should be disposed off and all liabilities should be cleared.

• For this purpose, the Company should prepare audited Accounts for the period ending not later than 30 days from filing the winding up application. Said accounts should show NIL Assets and NIL Liabilities.

• Documents to be submitted to ROC:

• After the Registrar is satisfied that the Company is defunct and has no assets and liabilities, he will issue notice to the Company for striking off the name from the register giving some time to withdraw the application, if required.

• After the expiry of the time limit, he will issue notice thereby striking off the name of the Company from the Register maintained by him and will send the same to publish in the Official Gazette. Once the said notice is published in the Official Gazette, the Company stands struck off from the Register.

Thanks Adarsh..

.Any idea, whether secretarial records needs to be updated. Actually, they did not have any activitiy, so,logically they would not have had any meeting/ resolutions na?

Vasu,

Some compulsory statutory requirements shud be met by the company irrespective of any transaction..

like :-  4 board meetings in every year / 1 BODM in each quarter.. , AGM in prescribed time as per sec 166 & 210 ...

So, the company records must be maintained....

practically, u hv to assume that meeting were held n prepare records accordingly..

Thanks Adarsh
