Compliance with statutory obligations established by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) can be achieved by filing these documents. Not meeting these deadlines could result in penalties, deactivation of a person\u2019s Director Identification Number (DIN), and disqualification from being a Director.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming financial year 2025-2026 has several due dates on which forms AOC-4, MGT-7, and DIR-3 KYC must be filed. This blog will discuss what each filing due date means, along with when and why they are essential.<\/p>\n<h2>Key ROC Filing Deadlines for 2026<\/h2>\n<h3>1. AOC-4 : Financial Statement Filing<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/form-aoc-4-filing\">AOC-4 form<\/a> is used to file all of a company\u2019s financial statements, which must include a balance sheet, profit and loss statement, and director\u2019s report, by law, within 30 days of the AGM, with the ROC.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Form MGT-7\/MGT-7A : Annual Return Filing<\/h3>\n<p>MGT-7 is a mandatory annual return form for private companies;\u00a0 MGT-7A is a mandatory annual return form for One Person Companies (\u201cOPC\u201d). MGT-7 and MGT-7A forms include information about the company\u2019s shareholding, its Board members, Statutory Auditors, address of the Registered Office, etc. The last date for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/form-mgt-7-filing\">MGT-7\/MGT-7A forms<\/a> for FY 2025-26, if the AGM is to be held on September 30, 2026, then it is November 29, 2026.<\/p>\n<div class=\"kp-cta-banner c1-brand-classic\">\n<div class=\"kp-cta-left\">\n<h3 class=\"c1-headline\">Stay Compliant with ROC & Annual Compliance Filing<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"c1-bullets\">\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Timely ROC Return Filing<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Expert Compliance Support<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Accurate MCA Form Preparation & Filing<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Avoid Penalties & Maintain Good Standing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"c1-action\"><a class=\"kp-btn c1-btn btn-hover-effect\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/annual-compliance-of-a-private-limited-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\nFile Annual Compliance Now <\/a><br \/>\n<span class=\"c1-trust\"><br \/>\n\u2605 4.8\/5 (1,12,845+ Happy Customers)<br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kp-cta-right c1-illustration-bg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cta-side-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/company-cta-02.png\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>3. Form DIR-3 KYC: Director KYC Filing<\/h3>\n<p>Under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/dir-3-kyc-new-rules\/\">DIR-3 KYC new rules 2026<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/dir-3-kyc-filing-online\">DIR-3 KYC<\/a> is required once every three years, with a due date of 30 June, along with mandatory updates within 30 days for any changes in KYC details.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For instance, a director who last completed DIR-3 KYC in June 2025 (for FY 2024-25) would not need to refile in 2026 or 2027, with the next filing due around June 2028, assuming no changes to their personal details in the interim.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Form DPT-3: Return of Deposits and Loans<\/h3>\n<p>All companies are required to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/dpt-3-filing-online\">file Form DPT-3<\/a>, which is a declaration of the amounts of deposits or loans that have been received during the previous financial year. The due date for filing Form DPT-3 for the Financial Year ending 31 March 2026 is 30 June 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Form MSME-1: Reporting of Micro and Small Enterprises (MSMEs)<\/h3>\n<p>Companies are required to file Form MSME-1 every six months detailing any overdue payments made to MSMEs. Therefore, the due date for filing Form MSME-1 for the period of October to March is 30 April 2026, while the due date for the period of April to September will be 31 October 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Form ADT-1: Auditor Appointment\/Reappointment<\/h3>\n<p>The purpose of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/adt-1-filing\">filing ADT-1<\/a> is to inform the ROC of the company\u2019s appointment or reappointment of auditors so that the company meets its legal obligations within 15 days after the date of the company\u2019s AGM.<\/p>\n<h3>7.

The most reliable way to avoid this is to mark your AGM date as soon as it\u2019s finalised, since most ROC deadlines (AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1) are calculated from that date rather than a fixed calendar date. Setting calendar reminders 15 days before each deadline gives your compliance team or consultant adequate buffer time to prepare and file documents without last-minute errors.<\/p>\n<h2>Best Practices for ROC Compliance<\/h2>\n<p>To successfully achieve ROC compliance, businesses should implement the following practices:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Create an annual filing plan: Prepare a calendar of compliance action items so you do not overlook any key dates.<\/li>\n<li>Use the MCA V3 system: Familiarise yourself with the MCA\u2019s online portal (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mca.gov.in\/content\/mca\/global\/en\/foportal\/fologin.html\">MCA V3<\/a>) for ease of filing your forms.<\/li>\n<li>Engage professionals: Retain a company secretary or legal professional to assist with managing compliance obligations, especially if the company has complex filings.<\/li>\n<li>Track penalties: Make sure to pay all penalties on time so as not to cause additional issues.<\/li>\n<li>Maintain documentation: Keep copies of all documents necessary to demonstrate compliance, including, but not limited to, financial records, meeting minutes, and board\/committee resolutions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"kp-cta-banner c1-brand-classic\">\n<div class=\"kp-cta-left\">\n<h3 class=\"c1-headline\">Avoid ROC Penalties with Timely Annual Compliance Filing<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"c1-bullets\">\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Annual Return & Financial Statement Filing<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Dedicated Compliance Experts<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 End-to-End ROC Compliance Management<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"check-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/correct.png\" alt=\"check\" width=\"15\" \/>\u00a0 Ensure Regulatory Compliance Year-Round<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"c1-action\"><a class=\"kp-btn c1-btn btn-hover-effect\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/annual-compliance-of-a-private-limited-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\nGet Compliance Support<\/a><br \/>\n<span class=\"c1-trust\"><br \/>\n\u2605 4.8\/5 (1,12,845+ Happy Customers)<br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kp-cta-right c1-illustration-bg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cta-side-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanakkupillai.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/company-cta-02.png\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<\/h2>\n<h3>1. What forms are needed when filing with the ROC in 2026?<\/h3>\n<p>The main forms of ROC filings are the AOC-4 form (which includes audited financial statements) and MGT-7 or MGT-7A (annual returns). Additionally, a Form DIR-3 KYC must also be submitted for each director.<\/p>\n<h3>2. When do I need to submit the AOC-4 form?<\/h3>\n<p>The AOC-4 must be submitted to the ROC within 30 days after an AGM has taken place.<\/p>\n<h3>3. What is the deadline for submitting the MGT-7 form?<\/h3>\n<p>The MGT-7 form must be submitted to the ROC within 60 days following an AGM.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Is it necessary for all directors to submit the DIR-3 KYC form every year?<\/h3>\n<p>No. Under the updated DIR-3 KYC rules effective 2026, directors are required to file DIR-3 KYC once every three years, unless there is a change in their KYC details (such as address or mobile number), in which case an update must be filed within 30 days of the change. Directors who completed their KYC for FY 2025-26 will not need to refile until their next applicable cycle.<\/p>\n<h3>5. What are the consequences if I miss the filing deadline with the ROC?<\/h3>\n<p>Failure to comply with the filing deadline may result in additional fees, penalties, or civil\/legal consequences such as disqualification from acting as a director or having the company\u2019s registration revoked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Companies registered under the Companies Act 2013 have to file their documents with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) as per the requirements&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":41719,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"no","footnotes":""},"categories":[4304],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-46800","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-compliance"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.1 (Yoast SEO v27.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>ROC Filing Due Dates 2026: Compliance Guide for Indian Companies<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check the latest ROC Filing Due Dates 2026 for Private Limited Companies, LLPs, and OPCs in India.
