Company filings
AOC-4 within 30 days of AGM; MGT-7 within 60 days. Confirm exact dates for your AGM.
LLP cycle
LLPs file Form 11 (30 May) and Form 8 (30 October) instead.
Worked dates and the LLP contrast
Take a company closing on 31 March that holds its AGM on 30 September: AOC-4 falls due about 29 October (30 days later) and MGT-7 about 28 November (60 days later). Hold the AGM earlier and both dates move up with it, because the clock runs from the actual AGM, not a fixed calendar date — so an AGM on, say, 20 August pulls both filings forward. A company’s first year gets more room, since the first AGM can be up to nine months after the first year-end. LLPs run on fixed dates instead: Form 11 (annual return) by 30 May and Form 8 (statement of accounts and solvency) by 30 October, regardless of any meeting. Directors’ DIR-3 KYC sits alongside at 30 September. Each form filed late draws ₹100 per day with no cap, so mapping every applicable date against your own AGM at the start of the year is what avoids the last-minute scramble that causes most misses. A simple table of form, trigger and due date, set up in April, covers it.
