Dear friend, Now a days, If a company is in default in filing annual returns with ROC, the companies which has the directors who are the directors of the defaulting company are not able to file any return with ROC. In simple words, you may become director of 10 new companies, but if you are a director in one defaulting company, the other 9 companies will not file any documents with ROC. So if you want to start a new venture please wind up the the company incorporated in 2006 which has no function. All the Best!

Director's of defaulting companies are not allowed to e-file forms of other companies in which he / she is a director. Pl see MCA general circular 33/2011 for full details. In view of that, unless the existing company's filing is updated, I think, u may face problems in uploading e-forms while incorporating another company.

There is a scheme which has started from 12th August, 2011 under which you can file the old returns and can regularize the company in which default has been made.
