Hey there, business owner! Let's talk about annual compliance - you know, all those yearly requirements that keep your company legally happy. Think of it as your business's annual health checkup, but with paperwork!
Why Should You Care? 🤔
Imagine driving without a license - scary, right? Running a business without proper compliance is kind of the same. It's all about:
Keeping your business legally protected (like insurance for your car!)
Avoiding those nasty penalties (nobody likes surprise bills!)
Maintaining your company's good reputation (like having a 5-star rating!)
The Essential Annual Compliance Checklist ✨

1. The "I'm Open for Business" Certificate - Form Inc 20A
⏰ Deadline: Within 180 days of starting
💰 Skip-it penalty: ₹50,000 for company + ₹1,000/day for directors
Think of this like getting your shop's "Open" sign - but official!
2. Your Business's Financial BFF (Auditor) - ADT 1
⏰ Deadline: Within 30 days of starting
💰 Skip-it penalty: ₹300/month
Like having a financial doctor who checks your business's health!
3. The Important Paperwork Gang
ITR Returns: Your business's annual report card 📊
Form AOC-4: Like your business's yearbook 📗
Form MGT-7: Your company's annual family photo 📸
4. The Must-Do Meetings
Just like family reunions, but for business:
Hold Annual General Meetings (AGMs)
Keep meeting notes (like saving your family photos!)
Get directors' reports ready (like writing thank-you notes)
Other Things You Can't Forget! 📝
Think of these as your business's monthly vitamins:
GST returns (monthly/quarterly)
TDS filings (like paying your phone bill - regular and on time!)
Employee PF (taking care of your work family)
Professional tax (being a good corporate citizen)
