📌 TL;DR - MGT-14 Filing Services at a Glance

Form MGT-14 is the MCA filing for specified resolutions and agreements with the Registrar of Companies, filed within 30 days under Section 117 of the Companies Act, 2013. It covers all special resolutions and listed board resolutions, and is triggered by most major corporate events such as name, object, capital and MOA or AOA changes.

MGT-14 filing services from Patron Accounting cover resolution drafting, the explanatory statement and ROC submission on the MCA V3 portal. Because almost every major corporate decision triggers an MGT-14, we manage it as a recurring compliance alongside the underlying event. Our team has supported 10,000+ businesses since 2009.

MGT-14 is the resolution filing behind events such as a company name change, a change in the object clause and a change in authorised capital, which we handle together with the MGT-14.

What Is Form MGT-14?

Form MGT-14 is the Ministry of Corporate Affairs filing through which a company reports specified resolutions and agreements to the Registrar of Companies, under Section 117 of the Companies Act, 2013. It must be filed within 30 days of passing the resolution.

The form covers three categories: special resolutions, certain board resolutions, and ordinary resolutions specified by law. A separate MGT-14 is filed for each event. It is the umbrella filing behind most major corporate changes recorded with the ROC.

Key Terms for MGT-14 Filing:

  • Special Resolution: A resolution requiring at least 75 percent shareholder approval, always filed in MGT-14.
  • Board Resolution: A resolution of the directors; only those listed under Section 179(3) and 117(3) require MGT-14.
  • Section 179(3) Exemption: Private companies are exempt from filing board resolutions for loans, guarantees and investments.
  • Explanatory Statement: The Section 102 statement that may accompany the resolution.
  • CG-1: The condonation application required when MGT-14 is filed beyond 300 days.

Section 117 30 Days

Which Resolutions Need MGT-14?

Every company must file MGT-14 for all special resolutions and for the board resolutions specified under Section 117(3). Private companies are exempt from filing board resolutions covered by Section 179(3).

  • Change of company name through a special resolution.
  • Alteration of the Memorandum or Articles of Association.
  • Change in the object clause, including unused prospectus funds.
  • Issue of sweat equity or preference shares and ESOP scheme approval.
  • Increase or alteration of authorised or paid-up capital where a special resolution is passed.
  • Appointment, reappointment or variation of terms of a managing or whole-time director.

Private company exemption: Board resolutions for borrowing, granting loans, giving guarantees and making investments under Section 179(3) do not require MGT-14 for private companies.

Common MGT-14 Filing Challenges and Solutions

ChallengeImpactHow Patron Accounting Solves It
Misclassifying resolutionsCompanies often file unnecessary MGT-14s or miss mandatory ones. We classify each resolution against Section 117(3) and the private-company exemption.
Missing the altered MOA or AOAIf the resolution changes the MOA or AOA, the altered document is a mandatory attachment. Missing it causes rejection. We prepare it before filing.
One form for multiple eventsA separate MGT-14 is required for each event. We file each resolution individually to avoid rejection.
Crossing the 300-day windowAfter 300 days the form cannot be filed without CG-1 condonation and INC-28. We act quickly to keep filings within the additional-fee window.

Key Benefits

Why Choose Professional MGT-14 Filing

Correct Resolution Classification

Each resolution is classified against Section 117(3) and the Section 179(3) exemption, so MGT-14 is filed where required and not where it is not.

Altered MOA or AOA Attached

Where the resolution amends the MOA or AOA, the altered, certified document is attached so the form is not rejected.

Separate Filing per Event

A separate, accurate MGT-14 is filed for each corporate event, avoiding the rejection that comes from combining resolutions.

Section 117(2) Penalties Avoided

On-time filing avoids the Section 117(2) penalty and the costly CG-1 condonation route that follows the 300-day window.

Filed Within 30 Days

Each reportable resolution is filed within the 30-day window, aligned with the underlying corporate event.

Handled by Qualified CAs and CSs

The resolution filing is handled end to end by qualified Chartered Accountants and Company Secretaries.

Legal and Compliance Framework

Governing provision: Section 117 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Section 94(1), requires a company to file specified resolutions and agreements in Form MGT-14 within 30 days.

Private company exemption: Under Section 179(3), private companies are exempt from filing board resolutions for borrowing, loans, guarantees and investments.

Penalty: Under Section 117(2), as amended, the company is liable to Rs 10,000 plus Rs 100 per day up to Rs 2,00,000, and every officer in default to Rs 10,000 plus Rs 100 per day up to Rs 50,000.

Condonation: Late filing attracts an additional fee under Section 403 up to 300 days; beyond 300 days the company must obtain condonation through CG-1 and file INC-28 before MGT-14.

Refer to the MCA portal for filing and to Section 117 on IndiaCode for the bare provision.

What is the due date for filing Form MGT-14?

Form MGT-14 must be filed within 30 days of passing the resolution or making the agreement, under Section 117 of the Companies Act, 2013. A separate MGT-14 is required for each event or agreement. The 30-day period runs from the date the resolution is passed at the Board or general meeting.

Which resolutions require MGT-14?

All special resolutions require MGT-14, regardless of company type. Listed board resolutions under Section 117(3) also require it, such as appointment of a managing director, related party transactions and approval of financial statements. Ordinary resolutions generally do not, unless specifically prescribed. A separate form is filed for each resolution.

Do private companies need to file MGT-14?

Yes, for special resolutions and most listed matters. However, private companies are exempt under Section 179(3) from filing board resolutions for borrowing money, granting loans, giving guarantees and making investments. They must still file MGT-14 for special resolutions such as name change, object change or MOA and AOA alterations.

What is the penalty for late filing of MGT-14?

Under Section 117(2), as amended, the company is liable to a penalty of Rs 10,000 plus Rs 100 per day of continuing default, up to a maximum of Rs 2,00,000. Every officer in default is liable to Rs 10,000 plus Rs 100 per day, up to Rs 50,000. Late filing also attracts an additional fee under Section 403.

What corporate events trigger MGT-14?

MGT-14 is triggered by most major corporate events, including company name change, alteration of the MOA or AOA, change in the object clause, issue of sweat equity or preference shares, ESOP scheme approval, certain capital changes and the appointment or variation of terms of a managing director. Each event is filed separately.

Can one MGT-14 cover multiple resolutions?

No. A separate Form MGT-14 must be filed for each event or agreement. Combining multiple unrelated resolutions in a single form leads to rejection. Where a single meeting passes several reportable resolutions, each requires its own MGT-14 within 30 days of the resolution date.

What happens if MGT-14 is filed after 300 days?

If MGT-14 is not filed within 300 days, the MCA portal requires the SRN of Form INC-28, which is available only after condonation. The company must file CG-1 for condonation of delay, pay the penalty in the condonation order, file INC-28 with the order, and then file MGT-14 referencing the INC-28 SRN.

Is the altered MOA or AOA attached to MGT-14?

Yes. Where the resolution alters the Memorandum or Articles of Association, the altered document is a mandatory attachment to MGT-14. Filing without the altered MOA or AOA is a common cause of rejection, so the amended version must be prepared and certified before the form is submitted.

MGT-14 last date kya hai?

Resolution pass hone ke 30 din ke andar Form MGT-14 file karna hota hai.

Kaunsi resolution MGT-14 me file hoti hai?

Sabhi special resolutions aur Section 117(3) ki listed board resolutions MGT-14 me file hoti hain.
