Section 8 Company Compliance in Ranchi
Keep your non-profit company compliant with both the MCA and the income tax department. We handle the yearly ROC filings, audit and tax returns.
Stay in good standing as a non-profit company
A Section 8 company must follow the same annual rules as other companies, such as audited accounts, AGM and ROC filings, and in addition must meet the conditions of its Section 8 licence. These include applying its income only to its objects and not paying dividends.
Failing to file on time brings daily late fees and can put the company and its directors at risk. We manage your ROC and income tax compliance and help you keep your 12A, 80G and CSR-1 status up to date.

Common questions
Is a Section 8 company treated like other companies for ROC filings?
Yes, it files AOC-4 and MGT-7 and holds meetings like other companies, with the added condition that its income is used only for its objects.
Can a Section 8 company pay dividends?
No. It cannot distribute profits to its members. Surplus must be applied to its objects.
Which income tax return does it file?
It depends on whether it claims exemption under its 12A registration and its income. We confirm the right return and audit report for your company.
What if we want to change our objects?
Changes to the objects of a Section 8 company need a special resolution and the required government approval. We guide you through the process.
We missed filings for a few years. Can you help?
Yes. We review the gaps, file the pending forms and advise on late fees and any relief options.
This page is general guidance as we understand current law and procedures. Rules, forms, fees and due dates change, and many details vary by state, so we confirm the latest requirements for your organisation before we begin. India’s new Income-tax Act, 2025 applies from 1 April 2026, so form and section numbers may change.
