📢 Advisory Note – CCFS 2026 | MCA Compliance Relief Window

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has introduced the Companies Compliance Facilitation Scheme, 2026 (CCFS-2026) - a valuable opportunity for companies to regularise long-pending statutory filings with reduced additional fees.

Last date: August 31, 2026

This scheme provides a practical window to clean up historical non-compliances and mitigate exposure to penalties.

🔎 Key forms typically covered under the scheme include:
• AOC-4 / AOC-4 XBRL – Financial Statements
• MGT-7 / MGT-7A – Annual Return
• ADT-1 – Appointment of Auditor
• STK-2 for winding up
• MSC-1 for declaration as dormant company

This is particularly relevant for:
✔️ Companies with backlog in annual filings
✔️ Inactive entities considering Dormant status
✔️ Companies evaluating strike-off options
✔️ Businesses seeking to regularise records before funding, restructuring, or due diligence

From companies' perspective, this is the right time to conduct a compliance health check, quantify exposure, and take action proactively.

The window is limited, early action will help avoid last-minute filing congestion and technical issues. If your company has pending ROC filings, now is the time to regularise.
