Quick Summary
A company secretary has resigned, and their resignation has been accepted by the board. However, the company has failed to file the resignation with the MCA using form DIR-12 for over two months. This discussion explores the remedies available to the former company secretary and the penalties the company faces for this delay. It also touches upon the possibility of backdating the filing to avoid penalties, though this is generally not a viable solution once the due date has passed.

Company has mandatory to file DIR 12 for resignation of CS if not filed then penalty will be imposed on company at the rate of 6 times of normal fees
But in order to avoid the penalty the company can show the date of resignation as current date..can the CS take any measures?
No, Company cannot get relived from penalty as CS gives his resignation 2 months ago and company didn't file dir 12 on due time so, penalty will be imposed
Ok thank you
Your welcome
