Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a private company can file its AOC4 and MGT7 forms before holding its Annual General Meeting (AGM). The consensus is that these filings are typically linked to the AGM date and cannot be submitted beforehand. While some initial advice suggested it might be possible with later account approval, the general understanding based on Sections 92 & 137 of the Companies Act is that the AGM date is a prerequisite for filing these forms.

Should be filed within the period of 30 and 60 days, respectively from the date when the Annual General Meeting
No a private company cannot file AOC 4 for MGT 7 before holding its AGM
Should be filed within the period of 30 and 60 days, respectively from the date when the Annual General Meeting is held

what is the reason for this restriction?

Company act Don't allow
It is restricted as per companies Act

can you quote the section/rule mentioning that?

As per section 92 & as per section 137

You wont be able to file the form without mentioning the date of AGM.
