Transactions before filing INC 20A.

I have opened a bank account for my private limited company and was not aware that transactions are not allowed before filing INC 20A. I made a few transactions to test ATM, internet banking, and online payments. What options do I have now?

  1. Ignore these transactions.

  2. Reverse the debit transaction.

  3. Upload NEFT/IMPS receipts instead of a bank statement.

  4. Open a new account.

 

My second query is, can a shareholder deposit their share capital in installments through multiple transactions?

Quick Summary
If you've made transactions before filing your company's INC 20A form, you have several options, including reversing debits or uploading payment receipts. It's crucial to note that commercial transactions like billing clients or signing revenue contracts are prohibited before INC 20A is filed and accepted. Shareholders can deposit share capital in instalments, but all share subscription money must be received before filing. Missing the 180-day window for INC 20A can lead to the company being struck off and penalties for directors.

A company incorporated after November 2018 cannot commence any business or use any borrowing powers until INC 20A is filed under Section 10A of the Companies Act. Before filing, you can open a company bank account, receive the share subscripttion money from the subscribers listed in the MOA, and cover incorporation-related expenses from that account. Commercial transactions like billing clients, signing revenue contracts, or receiving payments from customers should wait until INC 20A is filed and accepted by the MCA portal. If the 180-day window is missed, the company can be struck off and directors face a penalty of Rs 1,000 per day.
