What must our company or LLP file, when, and who will handle it?
A company holds its annual general meeting within six months of the year end (by 30 September; the first AGM within nine months), files its financial statements in Form AOC-4 within 30 days of the AGM, and files its annual return in Form MGT-7 or MGT-7A within 60 days of the AGM. Event-based forms are filed as things happen, for example auditor appointment (ADT-1) and changes in directors (DIR-12). An LLP files its Statement of Account and Solvency (Form 8) by 30 October and its annual return (Form 11) by 30 May. We prepare a compliance calendar for your entity, collect the signed financial statements and minutes, file the forms and send you the filed copies.
