Annual filings

The year, in filing order

For a 31 March company the practical order is DPT-3, AGM, ADT-1, financial statements, annual return. An LLP skips the AGM and uses two fixed dates.

  1. Step 1

    DPT-3 by 30 June

    Outstanding money as on 31 March, whether or not it is a deposit.

  2. Step 2

    AGM

    Within six months of the year end unless the Registrar extends it. The first AGM has its own nine-month rule.

  3. Step 3

    ADT-1 within 15 days of the AGM

    Only when an auditor is appointed. A five-year term does not mean five ADT-1 forms.

  4. Step 4

    AOC-4 within 30 days

    On these figures the company is outside the listed, capital and turnover XBRL classes.

  5. Step 5

    MGT-7A within 60 days

    Position as on the close of the financial year, filed after the AGM.

  6. Step 6

    CSR-2 if section 135 applies

    File with the financial statements. Do not treat a nil current-year profit as the end of the test.
