Forms Under Companies Act, 2013

The Companies Act, 2013, has provided an exhaustive set of forms to keep the compliances in check for the companies that are getting registered under various corporate entities. The forms enable the Registrar to verify if the companies are on track with respect to the compliances set by the Act.

The Companies Act, 2013 has its current impeccable shape after a number of improvisations to the earlier versions of the Act. Company law in India is not a new age law and has been in existence from 4 B.C. The Company law, though was brought in by the British, took its shape and form as per the Indian standards and economy. With the change in economic standards and progression in industrialisation of the country, the compliances under the law became greater and cumbersome. The Companies Act, 2013 mandates certain rules and regulations for the companies and the respective procedures pertaining to registration and other activities. It was also ensured that the companies thus registered took measures to keep the Registrar of Companies (RoC) updated about the compliances the company is adhering to. The Act, therefore, came up with various forms for this purpose, that would help in keeping these compliances under check with minimal effort.

Forms Prescribed by the Companies Act, 2013:

The Companies have to duly file the requisite forms with the Registrar as directed by the Act. While most of the forms are required to be filed annually, the filing of the others is event-based. Financial statements, application for filing the director’s KYC (Know Your Client form) etc are done on a yearly basis.

Few forms on the other hand are required to be filed only once, after the incorporation of the company, such as the form for filing the nominee’s consent in a One Person Company (OPC), application for reserving the name of the company, MoA (Memorandum of Association), AoA (Articles of Association), etc.

Few other forms are filed subject to the happening of an event, for instance when the address of the registered office is changed, the same has to be updated to the RoC through the stipulated form. The situation doesn’t always happen and may not happen to every other company that is registered, therefore if the event of changing the address does not occur, the form will not be filed. Also, failing to file these forms when they ought to be filed, will attract penalties as mentioned in the Act.
