Change in Registered Office for Delhi Companies

📌 TL;DR - Change in Registered Office in Delhi Services at a Glance

Different compliance levels: Within same city/ROC = Board Resolution + INC-22 (15 days). Outside city same ROC = Special Resolution + MGT-14 + INC-22 (30 days). Inter-ROC Delhi (South ↔ Central, post-Feb 2026) = SR + MGT-14 + INC-23 + RD approval (30-60 days). Inter-state = SR + MGT-14 + INC-23 + INC-28 + MOA Clause II (60-90 days). CRITICAL: Feb 2026 ROC bifurcation means cross-district Delhi moves may need RD approval. Patron manages from Delhi.

Delhi companies relocate for upgrade, cost reduction, lease expiry, strategic positioning. Post-Feb 2026 ROC bifurcation (ROC South Delhi + ROC Central Delhi) adds new compliance layer. Verify jurisdiction before any move. Learn more about Registered Office Change across India.

Patron Accounting's Delhi office handles all scenarios: within-city, inter-ROC (South↔Central Delhi), and inter-state. Integrated with ROC compliance and company registration for complete management.

Content is reviewed quarterly for accuracy.

Registered Office: Section 12 of Companies Act

Under S.12, every company must maintain a registered office in India for all communications. Address appears on MCA Master Data, letterheads, signage. Clause II of MOA specifies the state. Any change must be reported via prescribed forms. Non-compliance: Rs 1,000/day (S.12(9)).

Complexity depends on where you move: within-city = Board Resolution + INC-22 only. Across ROC = Regional Director approval via INC-23. Inter-state = MOA amendment + creditor consent + newspaper publication.

CRITICAL Delhi Update: MCA notification effective 16 Feb 2026 bifurcated Delhi ROC into ROC South Delhi and ROC Central Delhi. Cross-district moves may now be inter-ROC transfers requiring INC-23 and RD approval.

Key Terms for Change in Registered Office in Delhi:

ROC Bifurcation (Feb 2026): ROC NCT Delhi → ROC South Delhi + ROC Central Delhi. District-wise mapping. Cross-district = inter-ROC.

INC-22: All scenarios. Notice of change. 15-60 days depending on scenario. NOC + utility bill required.

INC-23: Inter-ROC and inter-state only. Regional Director application. Creditor declarations. Newspaper publication.

Penalty: Rs 1,000/day for late INC-22 (S.12(9)). Strike-off risk (S.248).

FAQs: Change in Registered Office in Delhi

Common questions about office change, ROC bifurcation, INC-22, and scenarios for Delhi companies.

Quick Answers

Delhi mein office shift karna hai? Same ROC + same city = Board Resolution + INC-22 (7-15 din). Different ROC (South↔Central) = SR + INC-23 + RD approval (30-60 din).

Feb 2026 ke baad kya badla? Delhi ka ROC 2 mein divide. Cross-district move ab inter-ROC hai - Regional Director approval chahiye.

Penalty kitna? Rs 1,000/din agar INC-22 late. Patron 7 din mein file karta hai.

Rs 1,000/Day Penalty - File INC-22 on Time

INC-22 deadlines: 15 days (within city) to 60 days (inter-ROC). Late = Rs 1,000/day. Post-Feb 2026, verify if your Delhi move crosses ROC jurisdictions BEFORE acting. Companies at different address than MCA records must file immediately.
