A practice with thirty clients and fifteen forms has hundreds of deadlines, many of them triggered by events, not by the calendar. They cannot live in someone’s head.
| Kind | What triggers it | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Annual | The financial year or a fixed date | Financial statements, annual return, director KYC, return of deposits, LLP annual filings |
| Event-based | Something that happened at the company | A director appointed, registered office changed, shares allotted, a charge created, a resolution passed |
Annual deadlines are easy to put on a calendar. Event-based ones are the ones that slip, because the clock starts when the client acts, and the practice often hears about it late.
Due dates, fees and requirements change; confirm each one on the MCA portal and with your adviser before relying on it.
AutoROC is a filing workspace for Company Secretaries and Chartered Accountants who file ROC forms for many companies and LLPs. Each client gets a portal with their CIN and an access code, and raises requests in plain words with documents attached. An assistant maps the request to the right MCA e-Form from a catalogue of 15, pre-fills everything already known from the company record, asks the client only for what is missing, one question at a time, and validates DIN, PAN, CIN, dates and amounts as they are entered. Board resolutions, consents and sanction letters are attached to the ticket and read. The professional reviews the pre-filled e-Form, prints it to PDF or exports JSON for the MCA V3 portal, files it and records the SRN. Tickets move new → collecting → ready → filed → done, and every client’s due dates sit on one dashboard with days left. The e-Form is a pre-filled reference for transcription; always verify against the live MCA form before filing.
Every client’s annual filings and every event-based filing, each with its due date, days left, owner and status, marked done only when the SRN is recorded.
Their deadline starts when something happens at the company, such as a director appointment or a charge, and the practice often hears about it late.
On the MCA portal and with your professional adviser, since requirements and dates can change.
