Frequently Asked Questions

How long does company strike-off take in Bangalore?
Typically 3-6 months from STK-2 filing, including the mandatory 30-day notice period and ROC processing time. Pre-closure compliance (overdue filings, NOCs) may add 1-3 months depending on the backlog.
What is the eligibility for voluntary strike-off?
The company must have: (a) not commenced business or not carried on business for 2 years, (b) no outstanding liabilities, (c) all statutory filings up to date, (d) no ongoing legal proceedings, and (e) consent of 75% shareholders by special resolution.
What happens to directors after company strike-off?
Directors are not automatically disqualified after voluntary strike-off under Section 248. However, if the company was struck off by ROC for non-compliance (involuntary), directors may face disqualification under Section 164(2). We ensure voluntary route to protect director status.
Which Registrar of Companies handles filings for a company in Bangalore?
ROC Bangalore has jurisdiction over companies with a registered office in Karnataka. Virtual Auditor files SPICe+, PAS-3, SH-7 and annual returns with that office on your behalf.
Which Shops and Establishments Act applies to a new business in Bangalore?
The Karnataka Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1961 applies in Karnataka, and professional tax is applicable. Virtual Auditor completes these registrations alongside incorporation.
Do you have an office in Bangalore?
Yes. Bengaluru office: 7th Floor, Mahalakshmi Chambers, 29, MG Road, Bangalore. Meetings are by appointment on +91 9962260333.
Which exit or restructuring route fits our entity's actual position?
It depends on whether the company is trading, solvent and free of liabilities. A company that has not carried on business for the two preceding financial years, or did not start business within a year of incorporation, can apply to be struck off under section 248 (Form STK-2), once its liabilities are cleared and its returns are filed. A solvent company with assets or creditors to settle uses voluntary liquidation under section 59 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, with a declaration of solvency and a liquidator. A company that cannot pay its debts goes through insolvency under the Code, not strike-off. An LLP has similar routes. Whichever route applies, close or regularise GST registration, file pending tax and ROC returns, and keep the records for the required period. We review your balance sheet and filings and recommend the route.

Company Strike-Off Services in Bengaluru

Strike-off (closure) for Bengaluru-incorporated companies routes through Form STK-2 at ROC Bengaluru under Section 248 of the Companies Act 2013, after the company has ceased operations and cleared all dues.

Bengaluru hosts ROC Bengaluru, ITAT Bengaluru (the highest-volume TP bench in India), and over 1,500 GCCs/Capability Centres — making it the global epicentre for India-anchored R&D centres. Whitefield ITPL, Manyata Embassy, Electronic City and Outer Ring Road (Bellandur-Sarjapur) collectively employ over 1.5 million IT/ITES professionals.

The economic mix of Bengaluru runs across aerospace & defence (HAL, BEL), coffee (Chikmagalur, Coorg) and silk (Ramanagara, Mysuru), biotech (Bengaluru-Hosur) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Electronics City, Hubli Auto-Cluster. On the AD-Bank side, highest concentration of GCC FEMA work in India; HSBC, Citi, JP Morgan, Standard Chartered, Deutsche, plus top private banks run dedicated GCC-FDI/SOFTEX desks at Bengaluru.

Karnataka contributes about 38% of India's IT/ITES exports and hosts more than 1,500 GCCs/Capability Centres — making Bengaluru ITAT and TPO the highest-volume transfer pricing jurisdictions in the country.

Eligibility Under Section 248(2) — Voluntary Strike-Off

Bengaluru-based companies seeking voluntary strike-off must (a) have not commenced business within 1 year of incorporation, OR have not been carrying on business for the immediately preceding 2 financial years; (b) clear all dues; (c) close bank accounts; (d) obtain creditor and member NOC; (e) file pending AOC-4/MGT-7 returns up to date.

STK-2 Filing & Pre-Closure Hygiene

Bengaluru-based companies with pending GST/TDS demands must close those before strike-off — the registry rejects STK-2 with open demands.

Alternative Routes — IBC Voluntary Liquidation, Fast-Track Mergers

Our scoping covers all three options for Bengaluru-based promoters.
