Change Management Services — Every Corporate Change Filed Correctly and On Time.

Director changes, name changes, capital increases, MOA/AOA amendments, and share allotments each trigger specific MCA filings with strict deadlines. We manage every change from resolution to acknowledgement.

A company's corporate details — its name, registered office, directors, share capital, and constitutional documents — are not fixed at incorporation. As a business grows, restructures, or changes ownership, multiple formal changes may need to be made at the MCA level. Each change involves a defined process under the Companies Act, 2013: board and sometimes shareholder approval, the correct MCA form, and adherence to statutory deadlines for filing — with penalties of ₹100 per day for late forms.

Director-level changes are among the most frequent: a new director's appointment requires Form DIR-12 to be filed within 30 days; a resignation requires both DIR-12 (by the company) and DIR-11 (by the resigning director). Share capital changes — whether increasing authorised capital, allotting new shares, or recording a share transfer — involve multiple coordinated filings (SH-7, PAS-3, SH-4, MGT-14). Changes to the constitutional documents (MOA and AOA) always require a special resolution and MGT-14 filing within 30 days.

Many companies also need to change their name, registered office, or financial year at some point — each requiring a specific approval process depending on the nature and extent of the change. We manage the full spectrum of corporate changes as a coordinated process: identifying the correct forms, preparing the required resolutions, filing within statutory timelines, and updating all connected records so the company's MCA profile accurately reflects its current state.

Frequently Asked Questions

DIR-12 is filed by the company to intimate the RoC of changes in directors or KMPs — appointments, resignations, change of designation, or cessation. It must be filed within 30 days of the change. The resigning director must also file DIR-11 separately.

PAS-3 is the Return of Allotment filed by the company within 30 days of allotting shares, convertible securities, or rights shares. It captures the terms of allotment, the class of shares, the allotment date, and the identities of allottees.

Yes — a company name change requires a special resolution of shareholders, MGT-14 filing within 30 days, and INC-24 filing with the RoC. The RoC issues a fresh Certificate of Incorporation bearing the new name, with the CIN unchanged.

Yes — where multiple changes require shareholder approval (e.g. MOA amendment + name change + capital increase), these can be passed as separate special resolutions at a single EGM, reducing costs and the number of meetings required.

Late filing of DIR-12 attracts additional fees of ₹100 per day per form. The director's appointment or resignation may not be reflected on MCA, creating discrepancies in the public record that affect due diligence, bank, and regulatory verifications.

Section 2(41) requires Central Government approval to change a financial year in certain cases — particularly where the company is associated with a foreign entity. Where no foreign-entity connection exists, the RoC can process it. The applicable authority depends on the specific circumstances.
