First of all the extention of AGM granted to you is maximum for the period of 3 months as per the valid reason send by you.

Maximum date of AGM would be 3 months from 30th September 2017 , ie. 30th December 2017.

The Auditor so appointed as a casual vaccancy shall hold the office till AGM. i.e. 30th December 2017. Further if you wish to continue for the same Auditor then appoint such Auditor for a period of 5 years.

ADT 1 shall be filled within 15 days from date  of AGM if form is not filled till date, then such form shall be filled with additional fees.

Form AOC 4 shall be filled within 30 days from date of AGM. So if not filled till date then file the form AOC 4 along with additional fees.

If your Company is falling under the criteria of Ind- As then till 31st March 2018 there is no additional Fees.

File MGT 7 within 60 days of AGM . If not filled till date then file MGT 7 with additional fees
