As a part of Annual Filing, Companies incorporated under the Companies Act 1956, are required to file the following eForms with the Registrar of Companies (ROC):

Form 23AC    : For filing Balance Sheet by all Companies
Form 23ACA : For filing Profit & Loss Account by all Companies
Form 20B      : For filing Annual Return by Companies having share capital
Form 66         : For filing Compliance Certificate by Companies having paid up capital of Rs. 10 lakh - Rs. 2 crore

Companies can do e-Filing in three different ways:

  • The Company representative can upload the e-Forms on the MCA portal through the ‘Annual Filing Corner’ link (after registering oneself as a user of the portal) at his convenience from his office/ home. This is the most convenient way of e-Filing.

     
  • The Company representative can prepare the e-Forms as per guidelines, get them digitally signed by the authorized signatory, copy them in a CD or a pen drive and visit the nearest “Registrar’s Front Office” (RFO). RFO staff will assist in uploading of eForms on MCA portal. For addresses/ phone numbers of RFOs, please refer to the “Facilitation Centre” link on the homepage of MCA portal.

     
  • The Company representative can also contact any of the Certified Filing Centers (CFCs) for the Annual Filing of e-Forms by paying the service charges to the CFCs. The details about the CFCs are available under the ‘Certified Filing Centre’ tab on the homepage of MCA Portal.
