Subscripttion money must reach the company's bank account:
• For incorporation, subscribers to the MoA must pay the subscripttion money. From 2019 (INC-20A), companies must file a declaration of commencement of business within 180 days of incorporation, confirming that subscribers have paid for the shares (with a bank statement as proof).
• If the Rs 30,000 paid-up capital wasn't deposited into the company's bank account, INC-20A can't be properly filed. Deposit it now (each subscriber's share by bank transfer, ideally) and file INC-20A with late fees.
• Failure to file INC-20A: penalty of Rs 50,000 on the company and Rs 1,000 per day on directors (max Rs 1 lakh), and the ROC may strike off the company (Sec 10A).
