How to Cancel an SRN Approved by ROC?

Understand the process of cancelling an approved Service Request Number (SRN) with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) online. Explore the steps involved in the cancellation of an approved SRN for efficient regulatory compliance.

Every company is required to complete the filing of e-forms with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) through the Ministry of Company Affairs (MCA) website. Following the submission of forms and the payment of fees on the MCA website, the company will receive an acknowledgement of the form filing, commonly referred to as a challan copy or receipt.

The challan copy or receipt contains a unique identifier known as the SRN (Service Request Number), prominently located on the left-hand side. The SRN is a distinctive nine-character alphanumeric string assigned to each e-form submitted on the MCA website. This SRN serves as a crucial reference for the company to track and monitor the approval status of the transaction associated with the filed form on the MCA website. The SRN plays a vital role in facilitating efficient and transparent communication between the company and the regulatory authorities throughout the filing and approval process.

Cancellation process of approved SRN

The process to cancel an approved SRN (Service Request Number) involves an offline procedure and is initiated when a company has filed an e-form with incorrect particulars, resulting in the approval of an SRN. Here are the steps to cancel an approved SRN:

Visit the Respective ROC:

   – The company needs to visit the Registrar of Companies (ROC) office of the state where its registered office is located.

Submit an Application:

   – Submit an application for the cancellation of the approved SRN along with the required supporting documents.

Document Scrutiny:

   – The ROC will scrutinize the application and documents submitted. The processing time for this step typically ranges from 15 to 25 days.

Approval Notification:

   – If the ROC identifies grounds for defectiveness in the form associated with the approved SRN, the application for SRN cancellation is approved. The ROC communicates this approval to the company through the email registered on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) master data for pvt ltd company registration.

Cancellation Completed:

   – After the cancellation of the approved SRN, the company becomes eligible to refile the e-form on the MCA portal.

The following documents need to be submitted along with the application for SRN cancellation:

  1. Affidavit from a director.
  2. Undertaking/declaration duly signed by the director of the company.
  3. ROC challan that requires cancellation.

It’s essential to note that the ROC has discretionary power to either approve or reject the application for SRN cancellation. If the ROC approves the cancellation, the company can proceed to file a fresh or revised form by paying the applicable fee.
