Avoid Non-Compliance Fines.

Types of Address Change

The complexity and time taken for a change in registered office depend entirely on the distance of the move, which dictates the governmental authority involved (ROC, RD, or NCLT).

Form INC-22 must be filed with the ROC within 30 days of the Board Resolution for the change. Failure to file incurs a daily penalty of ₹100.

Key Regulatory Authorities


  • Within ROC Jurisdiction:
    Filing with Registrar of Companies (ROC) - Simple.
  • Inter-State Change:
    Requires approval from the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) - Complex and time-consuming.
