All You Need to Know

    What is OPC Annual Filing?

    Every One Person Company (OPC) incorporated in India under the Companies Act, 2013 must file annual returns and financial statements with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) for each financial year.

    Even if there are no business transactions during the year, annual filing remains mandatory to keep the OPC active and to avoid late fees or penalties.

    Forms covered under OPC annual compliance

  • Form AOC-4: Filed to submit the company’s financial statements, including the balance sheet and profit & loss account.
  • Form MGT-7A: Filed to submit the annual return along with key details like shareholding and related disclosures.
