Statutory Ledgers & Registers

Beyond the accounting books, a company must maintain a set of statutory registers under the Companies Act — the register of members, of directors and KMP, of charges, of related-party contracts, and others — kept up to date and open to inspection.

The firm maintains these registers, updating them for every relevant event, so the company stays compliant and audit-ready.

Statutory registers and ledgers we maintain include:

• Register of members and of share transfers
• Register of directors, KMP, and their shareholding
• Register of charges
• Register of contracts and related-party transactions
• Other registers required by the Act, kept inspection-ready

  The registers of members, directors and KMP, charges, and related-party contracts, among others. We maintain the full set required for your company.

• Are statutory registers different from the accounting books?

  Yes. The accounting books record transactions; statutory registers record corporate events and are required separately under the Companies Act.

• How long does it take?

  Setting up the registers takes a few days; they are then updated continuously as events occur.
