Section 8 Company Annual Compliance- An Overview

A Section 8 company is one that is registered as a not-for-profit organization under Section 8 of the Companies Act 2013. Unlike other companies under the Act, Section 8 companies do not operate for profit. monetary, but rather work for the betterment of society and predominantly the welfare of people. The fundamental objective of these companies is to promote the arts, sciences, culture, sports and encourage educational or religious activities.

As these companies evolve for charitable purposes, the profits obtained are not shared among the members of the company. Ideally, the profit is invested back into the company to carry out the activities of the company.

Annual Compliance for Section 8 company:

  3. Preparing Director’s Report: Section 134 of the Companies Act, 2013 says that Form AOC-4 is needed to file the Director’s Report. The purpose of preparing a Director’s Report is to give shareholders a preview of the financial position of the company and the scope of its business. The signed ‘minutes of meetings’ is required to be maintained at the Registered Office.
  4. Filing of Financial Statements: The financial statements must be filed with the MCA (Form AOC-4) 30 days from the date of AGM. The statements must accurately reflect the company’s financial performance for the year.
  5. Filing of Annual Return: The annual return must be filed with the MCA (Form MGT-7) within 60 days from the closure of the financial year. It must contain accurate information about the company’s shareholders, directors etc.
