The new financial year 2020-21 has started today. It is a testing time for all businesses across the world on account of the Coronavirus lockdown. We are all working from home and available to support our clients.
In an effort to give a fresh start to existing companies and LLPs, the Government has unveiled schemes for compliance regularization. The scheme will provide complete penalty waiver and prosecution immunity for the Directors & promoters. Hence, we request you to use this golden opportunity to regularize any pending compliance at the earliest.

Companies Fresh Start Scheme 2020
Companies can file all overdue compliance without any penalty, get immunity from prosecution under this scheme. Lapses in Auditor appointment, MCA annual return filing and other statutory filings can now be done without any penalty. Further, once the compliance is regularized, the Directors can continue to maintain compliance or file for dormant status or apply for strike-off. If compliance is not regularized under this scheme, prosecution may be initiated by the Registrar against defaulting companies. Companies that avail benefit under the scheme will be provided a discharge certificate from prosecution. (Know more)
