As i know For change of address of registed office of a Pvt. Ltd. Co. we required to file the form-18 long with copy of board resolution to ROC.

But in our case the ROC not approving the Form-18, because they tell that it must required the form -23 to be filed of special resolution of share holders permission. before you file the form -18 as becuase in your case the co. address in changed from one district to another district of the same state.

Pl. let us know is it the correct process?

If the change of address of registered office is from one place to another place in the same city or town than only form 18 is required to submit with ROC.

If change of registered office from one jurisdiction to another in the same state than consent of member by special resolution is to be obtained and approval of regional director is also required. In this case form 23, RD approval and form 18 are reuiqred to be filed with ROC

In case there is only one ROC in a state and the registered office is shifted from one district to another in the same state than form 23 and form 18 are requried to be filed with ROC.

I hope your query is answered.
