What are These Approval Services?

Certain matters under the Companies Act, 2013 cannot be completed by filing alone. They need an order or approval from an authority. Depending on the matter, the application goes to the Registrar of Companies (ROC), the Regional Director (RD), or the Ministry of Corporate Affairs at the Central Government level (HQ).

Common examples include shifting a registered office from one state to another, condonation of delay, and compounding of offences. These often follow a related filing handled through our change management services and form part of broader compliance support.

Companies shifting the registered office from one state to another.
Companies seeking condonation of a delay in filing a form or completing an action.
