Closing an Indian entity properly, so no filings, taxes or director disqualifications follow you afterwards.
Who needs this
What we do
- Company strike-off (Form STK-2) after settling liabilities, closing bank accounts and filing overdue returns; LLP closure (Form 24).
- LO/BO/PO closure: closure application through the AD bank with the CA certificate, tax clearance, ROC (Registrar of Companies) and RBI de-registration, remittance of the surplus.
- Final income-tax and GST returns, GST cancellation, and surrender of labour registrations.
- Voluntary liquidation under the IBC where strike-off is not available.
Documents you'll need
- Latest accounts, statement of nil liabilities, bank closure letter, indemnity/affidavits of directors, board and shareholder resolutions, tax clearances
Typical timeline
Typically strike-off 4–8 months (MCA (Ministry of Corporate Affairs) processing); LO/BO closure 2–4 months. Indicative. Government processing times vary.
