Affairs about the companies registered under the Companies Act, 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It contains essential details such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Company name and Corporate Identification Number (CIN)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Date of incorporation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Company category and type<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authorised and

sheet filed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Details of directors and signatories<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This information is publicly accessible through the MCA portal and is useful for verifying the legal and regulatory status of a company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

display the company&#8217;s current status, such as Active, Strike Off, Under Liquidation, or other applicable status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This helps establish whether the company continues to exist on the MCA register.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Check_Company_Compliance_Status\"><\/span><strong>How to Check Company Compliance Status?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Checking the active status of the company does not mean that the company is in compliance. The company may be active but may also have pending statutory forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following should be checked to ascertain compliance of the company:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A. Annual Financial Statements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether Form AOC-4 or appropriate form has been filed by the company for financial statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>B. Annual Return<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether Form MGT-7 or MGT-7A has been filed by the company for the applicable financial year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>C. Annual General Meeting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The date of the last AGM filed by the company should be checked against the statutory requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>D. Auditor Appointment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether Form ADT-1 has been filed for the appointment or reappointment of the statutory auditor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>E. Other Event-Based Compliances<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending upon the company, consider the filings concerning appointments and resignations of directors, alteration of registered office, share allotments, debenture charges, and any other corporate event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The website of MCA even has an option to check annual filing status and filing transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Important Details to Verify<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before concluding whether a company is active and compliant, it is important to verify the following key details on the MCA portal to assess its statutory filing status and regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Particulars<\/strong><\/td><td colspan=\"2\"><strong>What to Check<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Company Status<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Whether the company is Active or otherwise<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Last AGM<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Whether the AGM has been held within the prescribed timeline<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Balance Sheet<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Latest financial year for which AOC-4 is filed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Annual Return<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Latest financial year for which MGT-7\/MGT-7A is filed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Directors<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Whether current directors and signatories are correctly reflected<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Charges<\/td><td colspan=\"2\">Whether any charges are outstanding against company assets<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Filing History<\/td><td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Whether any important statutory filings are pending<\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Difference_Between_Active_and_Compliant_Company\"><\/span><strong>Difference Between Active and Compliant Company<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Active Company<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Compliant Company<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The company continues to exist on the MCA register.<\/td><td>The company has fulfilled applicable statutory requirements.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Its status is reflected as Active.<\/td><td>Its applicable annual and event-based filings are up to date.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>It may still have pending filings.<\/td><td>It has complied with the requirements applicable to it.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> An Active status does not automatically mean that the company is fully compliant.

Is checking company master data on MCA free?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. Basic company master data can be accessed free of charge through the MCA portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q2. Can I check a company&#8217;s status using only its name?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. You can search by company name or CIN through the Master Data facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q3. Does Active status mean that the company has filed all ROC returns?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Active status indicates that the company continues to exist on the register. Separate verification of annual and event-based filings is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q4. How do I verify whether AOC-4 and MGT-7 are filled?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One may refer to the filing history of the company via MCA services, which include annual filing status facility and other public filings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q5. May I verify the directors of the company via MCA?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, one can do so using the View Signatory Details facility of MCA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Q6.
