OPC Annual Compliance Plans for Solo Founders in Pune — How it works with CorporateWalla®

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.

Pune is the second-largest startup ecosystem in India and shares the Maharashtra / Pune bench of NCLT with Mumbai. The IT corridor (Hinjewadi, Magarpatta, Kharadi) is home to 800+ tech companies. Pune property rates are 30-50% lower than Mumbai but the same stamp duty rules apply. Many "company registration Pune" queries come from first-generation entrepreneurs and IT professionals turning founders.

Step-by-step OPC Annual Compliance process

1
First auditor, at incorporation
Appointed by the board within 30 days. Audit is mandatory regardless of turnover, so this is not something to leave until year end.
2
Member adoption
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.
3
AOC-4
180 days from the close of the financial year, which is 27 September for a 31 March year end. Not 30 October.
4
MGT-7A and ITR-6
The abridged annual return within 60 days, and ITR-6 by 31 October in audit cases.

Why choose CorporateWalla® for OPC Annual Compliance in Pune?

AOC-4 at 180 days, not 30 October

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.

Audit is mandatory at nil turnover

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.

Board meetings are lighter

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.

The nominee nobody updates

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.

MGT-7A, not MGT-7

The abridged annual return applies to an OPC and to a small company, filed within 60 days. Filing the wrong form is a resubmission.

CCFS-2026 while it lasts

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.
