Started business with paid up capital for pvt ltd firm

Our startups incorporation was completed on last January. We started our business and funds started to come to the company account from that month itself. But we never had an idea that we need to invest paidup capital before starting the business. What can we do now. Can someone help us regarding this.

Quick Summary
A newly incorporated Pvt Ltd company started trading and receiving funds before realising they hadn't invested the paid-up capital. While the Companies Act 2013 previously required minimum paid-up capital and declarations before commencement, these rules have since been abolished. As long as the company holds sufficient cash and assets, there's no immediate concern regarding the paid-up capital requirement.

But our account has now cash and assests. 

No Minimum Paid-up Share Capital: The minimum paid-up share capital requirement of INR 100,000 (in case of a private company) and INR 500,000 (in case of a public company) under CA 2013 has been done away with. Consequently, the definitions of private and public companies stand amended.

No declarations for commencement of business, etc.: CA 2013 required all companies to file following additional declarations with the Registrar of Companies prior to commencement of business or exercising any borrowing power: (i) declaration by a director that minimum paid-up share capital has been paid; and (ii) company has filed verification of registered office.

Special Courts: Section 435 read with Section 436 provides the Central Government the power to set up special courts to try offences under CA 2013.

as long as you hold assets and cash in business, there is no need for capital requirement.
