1) If Company not filed Annual Return for Last Year 2023-24 due to Redvelopment Project and Disputes Management and now Company sign balance Sheet on 07.06.2025 to file year on 2025 for FY 2023-24
Give Suggest best option either AGM keep on 30.09.2024 or 30.09.2025 in form AOC-4 and MGT-7A with attachment clarification regarding redeveopment project.
or not filing for FY 23-24 direct filed 2024-25
Statutory filings for FY 2023–24 cannot be skipped. Under the Companies Act, 2013, annual compliance is financial-year specific and mandatory, irrespective of redevelopment projects or ongoing disputes.
If the AGM for FY 2023–24 was not held by 30.09.2024, the company must conduct a belated AGM at the earliest possible date. Holding an AGM in September 2025 for FY 2023–24 would not be compliant. The date of signing the balance sheet (07.06.2025) does not alter the financial year to which the accounts relate.
Post AGM, the company should immediately file AOC-4 and MGT-7 / MGT-7A for FY 2023–24 with applicable additional fees. A brief clarification regarding redevelopment or disputes may be included in the Board’s Report or notes to accounts, but it does not exempt filing.
Directly filing FY 2024–25 without regularising FY 2023–24 is not permissible and may invite penalties.
