Relocating your company's registered office involves a series of strict statutory filings under Section 12 of the Companies Act, 2013, with the procedural complexity scaling based on your destination. Shifting within local limits requires a simple Board Resolution and Form INC-22 within 15 days. However, moving outside local limits, shifting jurisdictions between ROCs (such as cross-district changes), or moving across state borders (e.g., relocating from Delhi to Karnataka) demands a Special Resolution (MGT-14), newspaper publications, creditor NOCs, and Regional Director approval via Form INC-23. Failing to file INC-22 on time results in steep daily penalties of ₹1,000 and risks company strike-off under Section 248. Our team coordinates this entire workflow to keep your transition fully compliant.
We evaluate your target address to map out the required approvals—whether local limits, inter-ROC, or state-to-state Regional Director approvals.
Our team reviews lease deeds, municipal khata extracts, utility bills, and landlord NOCs to ensure they are 100% compliant with MCA standards.
We prepare and submit Form INC-22 and petition the Regional Director via Form INC-23, resolving any creditor objections or regulatory queries.
We coordinate GST address modifications, PAN/TAN alignments, and banking registry updates to reflect your new physical headquarters.
You must submit a copy of a utility bill (electricity, water, or telephone) not older than 2 months, a lease or rent agreement in the company's name, and a signed No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the property owner.
Under Section 12(8) of the Companies Act, if a company fails to report an address change within 15 days, the company and every default officer are liable to a penalty of ₹1,00,000.
Yes. A state-to-state relocation alters the MOA Situation Clause and requires a public notice in Form INC-26 published in both an English newspaper and a vernacular newspaper where the current registered office is located, to invite creditor objections.
