Two things about OPC compliance catch almost every solo founder out, and both come from applying private limited company rules to a company that has its own. Your AOC-4 is not due on 30 October. And your audit is not optional at nil turnover.
Pick the speed and depth that matches your need. Same quality, same CA team — only the timeline changes.

MCA filing fees on AOC-4, MGT-7A and ADT-1 are paid at actuals, as is the additional fee on any late form at ₹100 per day per form with no cap. The statutory audit is a separate engagement by an independent auditor. Until 31 August 2026, overdue AOC-4 and MGT-7A can be regularised under CCFS-2026 at 10 per cent of the accumulated additional fee, with immunity from prosecution for the delay.

All fees and charges listed are indicative only and do not constitute a binding offer. Final amounts may vary depending on the volume of work and the complexity involved.
Appointed by the board within 30 days. Audit is mandatory regardless of turnover, so this is not something to leave until year end.
Financial statements must be adopted by the member by resolution entered in the minutes book, on or before the AOC-4 filing date. The form asks for that date and an inconsistent one causes resubmission.
180 days from the close of the financial year, which is 27 September for a 31 March year end. Not 30 October.
The abridged annual return within 60 days, and ITR-6 by 31 October in audit cases.

An OPC is exempt from holding an AGM under Section 96(1), so the Act gives it its own timeline: 180 days from the close of the financial year, being 27 September for a 31 March year end.
There is no threshold. Section 137 requires the statements filed in AOC-4 to be duly audited with the auditor’s report under Section 143(3) attached. Nil revenue and a dormant bank account do not change it.
One director means no formal board meetings — resolutions go in the minutes book and get signed. More than one triggers Section 173(5): at least one meeting in each half of the calendar year, ninety days apart.
Every OPC names a nominee in its memorandum who takes over on the member’s death or incapacity. Any change, or a withdrawal of consent, needs Form INC-4. It is not an annual filing, which is exactly why it gets forgotten.
The abridged annual return applies to an OPC and to a small company, filed within 60 days. Filing the wrong form is a resubmission.
Overdue AOC-4 and MGT-7A can be regularised at 10 per cent of accumulated additional fee until 31 August 2026, with immunity from prosecution for the delay. The scheme also allows dormant status via MSC-1 and strike off via STK-2 at reduced rates.
