Change of Registered Office

Every company must have a registered office where notices and communications are sent. Changing it requires different approvals depending on how far it moves — the simplest within the same city, the most involved across state lines, which needs Regional Director approval.

The firm identifies the right route, secures the approvals, and files the changes, then updates the address on every record.

1. 01

   Determine the route

   Establish which of the four scenarios applies and the approvals it needs.

2. 02

   Resolutions

   Pass the board and, where needed, members' special resolution.

3. 03

   Approvals & filings

   Obtain Regional Director approval (INC-23) where required and file INC-22/MGT-14.

4. 04

   Update records

   Update the address across PAN, GST, bank, and licences.

PBT moves your registered office by the correct route and updates every record.

• The right route identified for your move
• Resolutions, RD approval, and the ROC filings
• Handling of the publication and consent steps for inter-state moves
• Address updated across PAN, GST, bank, and licences
• Scope, deliverables, and fees agreed in writing up front

• Is moving the office within the same city simpler?

  Yes. A move within the same city, town, or village needs only a board resolution and INC-22. Longer moves need members' approval and, across states or ROCs, Regional Director approval.

• Can I shift my registered office to another state?

  Yes, but it requires amending the MOA and obtaining Regional Director approval (INC-23), with publication and consent formalities. We manage the whole process.

• How long does it take?

  A same-city move takes days; an inter-state move can take a couple of months because of the RD-approval process.
