19 March 2017 Sir.

CBA Nidhi Limited incorporated in 09/05/2016

Required

What is due dates for filing applicable returns in both the above cases
When Statutory Audit to done
When to appoint the auditor


Thanks in advance

20 March 2017 AS ABC NIDHI COMPANY WAS INCORPORATED ON 30/1/ 2016, SO AS PER SECTION 2(41), FINANCIAL YEAR CLOSING DATE WOULD BE 31ST MARCH 2017. SO COMPANY SHALL FILE THE RETURNS WITHIN 90 DAYS FROM THE CLOSURE OF FIRST FINANCIAL YEAR, IE. MAXIMUM BY 30TH JUNE 2017 IN FORM NDH 1. BUT IF THE COMPANY FAILS TO FILE THE RETURN WITHIN 90 DAYS THEN COMPANY NEEDS TO APPLY TO RS FOR FILING OF RETURN IN FORM NDH 2 ALONG WITH PENALITY AS PRESCRIBED UNDER THE NIDHI RULES.
AND SAME FOR THE ANOTHER COMPANY CBA , NEEDS TO FILE THE RETURN IN NDH 1 BY 30TH JUNE 2017

21 March 2017 Thank You Sir for your reply.

I would also like to know when the half yearly returns are to be filed in both the above cases.
Suppose the date of incorporation is 25/11/2015, what would be the concerned Financial Year and what is due dates for filing returns.

Thank You.

22 March 2017 EVERY COMPANY COVERED UNDER RULE 2 OF NIDHI RULES SHALL FILE THE HALF YEARLY RETURNS.
AS COMPANY IS INCORPORATED ON 25TH NOVEMEBR 2015. SO FINANCIAL YEAR AS PER SECTION 2(41) WOULD BE 31ST MARCH 2016. SO HALF YEARLY RETURN SHALL BE 6 MONTHS FROM 31ST MARCH 2017, IE. MAXIMUM UPTO 30SEPTEMBER 2016

04 August 2024 Let's address each part of your query regarding the Nidhi companies:

### ABC Nidhi Limited (Date of Incorporation: 30/01/2016)

1. **Due Dates for Filing Applicable Returns:**
- **Annual Return (Form NDH-1):** Due within 60 days from the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting (AGM), which typically should be held within 6 months from the end of the financial year. Therefore, if the financial year ends on 31st March, the AGM should ideally be held by 30th September, and the annual return (Form NDH-1) should be filed by 29th November (30th September + 60 days).

- **Financial Statements (Form AOC-4):** Due within 30 days from the AGM.

2. **Statutory Audit:**
- The statutory audit of ABC Nidhi Limited should be conducted annually. The auditor should be appointed at the first AGM and then annually thereafter.

3. **Half-Yearly Returns:**
- Nidhi companies are required to file half-yearly returns (Form NDH-2) with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) within 30 days from the conclusion of each half-year. Therefore, for the first half ending on 30th September, the return should be filed by 30th October, and for the second half ending on 31st March, the return should be filed by 30th April.

### CBA Nidhi Limited (Date of Incorporation: 09/05/2016)
