Change of Statutory Auditor (Form ADT-1) in Delhi — How it works with CorporateWalla®

Change of statutory auditor — appointment of new auditor / removal of existing / casual vacancy. Form ADT-1 filing with ROC + board / AGM resolution.

Delhi is the national capital and home to the MCA regional office (ROC Delhi), all major embassies, and the highest density of trademark attorneys in India (Karkardooma IP Office, IP Facilitation Centre). Stamp duty in Delhi is on the lower side compared to Maharashtra / Tamil Nadu. Most central government compliance — FSSAI, BIS, PSARA, BOCW, EPFO — has its head office in Delhi, so approvals often get processed faster. Property valuation uses the Delhi circle rate (often lower than market value in prime colonies).
