Annual Compliance — Public Limited Company
The heavier yearly compliance of a public limited company — meetings, committees, and ROC filings.
Annual compliance for a public company
A public limited company carries the most extensive compliance under the Companies Act — more frequent board meetings, board committees, stricter disclosure, and the secretarial standards — on top of the usual ROC and tax filings.
The firm runs the full calendar, coordinating with the company secretary, so governance and filings stay in order.
What the year includes
Annual compliance for a public company includes:
- Board and committee meetings (audit, nomination & remuneration, and others as applicable)
- The annual general meeting and the board's report with enhanced disclosures
- Audited financial statements, AOC-4, and MGT-7
- Adherence to the Secretarial Standards (SS-1 and SS-2)
- Director KYC, and event-based and periodic returns
