About Company Strike Off

If your company has not started business or has stopped operations, it is advisable to close it through the official strike-off process instead of keeping it non-compliant. Company strike-off applications are processed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

Process: Company strike off is a legal process through which the name of a company is removed from the Register of Companies. This option is available for companies which have not commenced business, or have not carried out any business for a long period, and have no major pending compliances or litigation. Once the company is struck off, it legally ceases to exist.

Key Benefits

  • No Future ROC Compliances: End of annual filing requirements
  • Avoids Penalties and Late Fees: Prevents accumulation of penalties
