Dormant Status Filing | N D Savla & Associates
Dormant Status Filing · Nashik, Maharashtra

Dormant Status Filing — Paused. Protected. Preserved.

Application for dormant company status for an inactive company, and the minimal annual filings required to maintain that status, filed with the Registrar of Companies.

Book Free Consultation

A company that has no significant accounting transactions and is not carrying on any business can apply for dormant status, which reduces its ongoing compliance burden while preserving its registration for future use.

At N D Savla & Associates, we assess whether a company qualifies for dormant status, prepare the application along with the auditor's certificate and special resolution, and file it with the Registrar of Companies.

Once dormant status is granted, we track the minimal annual compliance still required so the status is not lost due to a missed filing.
