Activities to Be Performed after Incorporation Of Company

If you have recently incorporated your private limited company or under the process of incorporation then you must get yourself familiar to the new provisions of Companies act 2013.

The most important things that every promoter or director of a newly incorporated private limited company should know after getting certificate of incorporation or before getting into the process of incorporation.

Checking Company’s Master Data after Incorporation

Certificate of incorporation for a private limited company is the last step in the process of incorporation. Once you received the certificate of incorporation, it means, all legal formalities required for company registration are completed in India.

At Gapeseed Consulting, we have legal consultants like chartered accountants and Company Secratories who help us in the process of company incorporation and do all such things that are required to complete the registration process.

Now the question is how to cross check to know that the company is incorporated with correct details like authorized share capital, registered office, category, CIN, paid-up share capital, status and date of incorporation etc.

These are the most important thing that every company should keep it right.

We suggest you to check these details in company’s master data by visitingthe website of Ministry Of Corporate Affairs  after getting certificate of incorporation.

If you find any changes or incorrect details then immediately inform to your chartered accountant or Company Secretary  to take necessary actions for its correction.

You need to check following things in company’s master data;

  • Authorized share capital
  • Paid up share capital
  • Registered office address
  • Status i.e. Active or Inactive
  • Date of incorporation

File E-Form INC22 For Situation Of Registered Office

Situation of registered office has to be intimated within 30 days from the date of incorporation to the registrar of companies. This can also be filed at the time of incorporation along with other e-forms if registered office of the company is going to be the director’s residence or owned house.

If it’s not filed at the time of incorporation then within 30 days from the date of incorporation, then it is a Non-Compliance u/s 22 of the Companies Act,2013

As per section 12 of Companies act 2013, a company shall, on and from the 15th day of its incorporation and all times thereafter shall have a registered office. This means the company should enter into a rent or lease agreement within 15 days from the date of incorporation and within 30 days from the date of registration should file INC-22 with ROC.

Display Company’s Identity And Other Details

After incorporation, it’s the duty of the company to display following things outside the company’s registered office;

  1. Name of the company
  2. Registered office address of the company
  3. Corporate identity number or CIN
  4. Telephone number, email ID
  5. Website address and fax number if any

These details are also required to be printed in all business letters, bill-heads and in all other official publications.

Putting CIN or corporate identity number in all official publications is a new requirement in Companies act 2013. This provision was not there in old Companies act 1956.

In case of failure to quote CIN number, penalty of Rs. 1,000 per day shall be imposed on the defaulting company and on every officer in default for every day during which such default continues up to a maximum limit of Rs. 1,00,000.

If company has changed its name in last two years then it shall paint or affix or print, as the case may be, along with its name, the former name or names so changed in all official publication including letter head and bill-heads.

Appointment Of Company Auditor

As per section 139(6) of Companies Act 2013, company has to appoint its first auditor within 30 days from the date of incorporation in a board meeting. If board of directors are not able to appoint then it has to be appointed within 90 days in a general meeting of members.

First auditor as appointed is required to hold office till the conclusion of first annual general meeting. Companies Act 2013 does not require any form to be filed with ROC but this is a requirement of law and it has to be complied within time.

Open A Bank Account And Issue Shares To Subscribers

Companies Act 2013 requires the company to allot and deliver share certificates within 2 monthsfrom the date of incorporation to all subscribers of MOA. It’s also mentioned that each subscriber will deposit subscription money as specified in MOA to company’s bank account by cheque or through net banking.

We suggest to open a bank account with the help of MOA, AOA and certificate of incorporation and then takecheque from each subscriber and deposit it in company’s bank account.

File Audit Report, Financial Statements And Annual Report Before Due Date

A private limited company is required to file its balance sheet, profit and loss account, auditor’s report and annual return every financial year before the due date with the registrar of companies. Non compliance to this provision will attract additional fee in addition to the normal fee that are charged while filing the e-Form.

Well managed and transparent taxation is one of the most required aspect in Accounting for Startups.

Excerpts from GST Council’s 8th Meeting

What were the main points in the GST Council’s 8th meeting? 

The main points of discussion in the 8th GST council meeting were as follows:

1. ISSUE OF DUAL CONTROL
In the 8th GST council meeting, the group of members didn’t have any common agreements on the issue of dual control. This issue made people think differently as many had different views on this topic. The State does not want the Centre to have the authority over all the small tax paying entities whereas The State does not have any problem in having Dual Control with the Centre for the authority of all the bigger tax payers. The Council also cannot decide the turnover to defy a small taxpayer from a bigger one, for some a company having a turnover below 5 crores will be a small tax payer whereas as per the Centre a company having a turnover of 1.5 crores will also be a small tax payer. The centre is not ready to accept the demands of state for access over 1.5 crores in case of small tax payers. The council wants to consider a high cut off rate and wants the Central Goods and Services Tax to be administered by the Centre and the tax payers below that cut off should be administered by the State.

2. CESS
CESS will be charged on many more goods such as luxury goods, aerated drinks, tobacco products and on high-end cars. The ultra-luxury goods and sin goods will have a GST cess for a period of 5 years. The major part of CESS will depend upon the current incidence of tax, if the clause of GST cess for 5 years raises any profit, then the council will decide on how to use these profits to compensate any other losses incurred by the State or Centre. Only the Clean Environment Cess will be retained and all the funds will be used to compensations.

3. INDUSTRY REPRESENTATION
The Government is deliberating all representation from Trade and Industry in the implementation of the GST bill. The Commerce and Industry sectors has given representation from officials to the GST council. The banking and insurance sector also has given representation to understand the impact of GST on products.
