How to shut down a private limited company in india?

2540 views 2 replies

I am trying to shut down a private limited company which was incorporated on July 2012. I was told that a company can not be closed within a year since its incorporation. i.e i can shut down my pvt ltd company only by July 2013.

The reason given is "Company is a defunct company i.e. the company has nil assets and liabilities and has not carried on any business or operation for the last one year."

Is it that a private limited company can be shut down only after a year since its incorporation? (something akin to divorce laws where couples are given some mandatory time of reconcilation)

PLease clarify on this

It will go under Fast Track Exit...

 

What are the main criteria for making an application under FTE?
There are two main criteria:-
  • The company applying under FTE should not have any asset and liability.
  • The company should not have commenced any business activity or operation since incorporation or at least one year must has been passed since last business activity or operation.

The company can be struck off by using FTE Mode. Here, there must be nil assests and liabilities in the company as well as the company should not have done any business since incorporation or the busines is closed for the last one year. The company will be struck off by paying a specified fees to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
