Strike Off OPC

All you need to know

When a company is incorporated, the Registrar of Companies issues a Certificate of Incorporation, confirming the company’s existence. Once the company’s name is registered, it cannot be removed unless the company applies for it or it is done through legal proceedings. If the company fails to commence business or submit annual returns, the Registrar may, on its own initiative, strike off the OPC.

One Person Company Strike Off:

The strike-off or winding up of a company is mandatory if the company is not in operation. This process frees the company from all legal compliances and updates the MCA database. The application for strike-off should be filed within 30 days from the date of signing the statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Advantages of Striking off / Closing an OPC:

No Penalty – Once the closure process begins, the company no longer needs to worry about incurring penalties for unresolved issues.

Free from Compliance – Since the company will be closed, there will be no further compliance obligations.

Reallocate Resources – If the current business is not profitable, its resources can be redirected to a more viable venture.

Easily Strike Off Your OPC

Reasons to Make Your Decision Easy

Closing a company can be done by submitting an application with the MCA, typically completed within 3 to 6 months. The process is fast-tracked, online, and hassle-free.

If your company is inactive or dormant, it's better to wind it up rather than comply with various obligations such as filings, audits, and other annual requirements. This helps you save on compliance costs year after year.

Failure to meet compliance deadlines can result in fines and penalties, including restrictions on directors starting another company. To prevent these penalties, it is advisable to legally close a dormant or inactive company.
