Dear Sir/Madam,

My husband has a LLP (this is the first year of filing) and he and his CA tried to upload forms on MCA portal today (31/12/2020) since morning but as the site was heavy they were not able to upload the forms. Now, when they tried it at 1 PM (i.e. 01/01/2021) site worked and they were able to upload the form on MCA portal but it is showing the additional fee of Rs. 6350/- (separately with normal fee). Is there a way we can ask for a waiver of the fee from any authority? or what should we do to save the penalty (additional fee). Can anyone please help urgently?

Quick Summary

This discussion concerns issues faced when trying to upload LLP forms on the MCA portal, particularly around the year-end deadline of December 31st, 2020. Users experienced website heavy load issues, preventing timely uploads. Consequently, forms uploaded on January 1st, 2021, incurred additional fees. The thread seeks urgent advice on requesting a waiver for these penalties, drawing parallels to extensions granted by Income Tax and GST authorities.

Yes ..Many of us facing the same issue. Site was not working properly on 31st dec 2020 & now (on 1st jan 20200 it is asking to pay the late fee. MCA should come up to waive the late fee. Income Tax & GST have extended the due date then why cant MCA even after their site issue?
