26 June 2011 I have read about provision of Registered office of a co. but not about head office of a co.

I have two questions in this regard

My first question is that Head/Corporate office of a company is defined in company Act.

and 2nd question " can a co. have Registered office in delhi and corporate office of company in UP ( two different ROC Region ) acc. to company act. 1956 "

26 June 2011 Head office does not meant to keep the records, but its consists of centralization of registrations and sitting place of top persons of the management,
records maintanance is always done at "registered office"

27 June 2011 under companies Act, provisions related to only registered office is given. There is no provision which mention anything about Head Office or Corporate Office in Companies Act

Moreover, regarding maintenance of books of accounts, books of accounts can be maintained anywhere however the same is required to be intimated to ROC by filing form 23AA.

2) Yes you can have Registered Office i one State and Corporate office in another state
