🧾 What is Annual Filing for Private Limited Company?

All Private Limited Companies registered under the Companies Act, 2013 must submit annual returns and financial statements to the Registrar of Companies (ROC), irrespective of business turnover or activity.

This includes two key filings every financial year:

  • AOC-4 – Financial Statement

Non-filing attracts daily penalties and may disqualify directors.
