Registered Office Change — Updating Your Company's Legal Address on Record.
Changing a company's registered office requires board or shareholder approval and MCA filing — with different forms and procedures depending on whether the change is intra-city, inter-city, or inter-state.
Contact UsA company's registered office is the address at which all statutory communications — notices, summons, and regulatory correspondence — are directed, and it determines which Registrar of Companies has jurisdiction over the company. Changing this address has different procedural requirements under the Companies Act, 2013 depending on whether the change is within the same city or town, to a different city in the same state, or to an entirely different state.
For an intra-city change, a board resolution and Form INC-22 are sufficient. For a change to a different city within the same state, a special resolution is required, and both MGT-14 and INC-23 must be filed. An inter-state change is the most involved — it requires a special resolution, publication of a notice in a local newspaper, a confirmation order from the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), and then a filing with the RoC of the new state via INC-23.
In every case, proof of the new registered office — a No Objection Certificate from the property owner, a copy of a recent utility bill, and a copy of the rent or lease agreement where applicable — must be attached to the filing. We assess the correct route and manage the process and documentation to ensure the change is recorded accurately on MCA.
