What Is ROC Annual Return?
An ROC annual return is a statutory return containing
specified information about a company as required
under the applicable provisions of company law.
The annual return provides information about the
company and its corporate structure, including
applicable details relating to the registered
office, principal business activities, securities,
shareholding, members, promoters, directors,
key managerial personnel, meetings and other
prescribed matters.
The information required depends on the nature of
the company and the applicable annual return form.
BBSR Services helps businesses organise the
required information and coordinate the applicable
annual return filing process.
Annual Return Is More Than a Simple Form
An annual return brings together important
corporate information for the relevant
financial year. Properly organising shareholder,
director, share capital, meeting and company
information is therefore an important part of
the annual compliance process.
MGT-7 and MGT-7A Annual Return Filing
Different companies may have different annual
return filing requirements. The applicable form
should be determined based on the company's
classification and the prevailing statutory
requirements.

consequences under the applicable provisions.
The actual position should be assessed based on

history.
