Late filing of form 8 for creation of second charge

This query is : Resolved 

02 October 2012 Sir,

One of my friend is director in company. The company has taken a loan 4.5 Years back.

They were asked to create the second charge on assets of the company. First being with the other bank against term loan.

They have not yet filled the form 8 with ROC for creation and registration of second charge.

The other Bank is asking the company to create the charge now. There is already a delay of 4.5 Years.

Please tell me the procedures and the penalty that may be levied in this case.

Please tell me all the penalties. Is there any scheme which we can opt for getting reduced penalty.
