Change Registered Office of Company — INC-22 & ROC Filing | Beyonte Compliances

Company Law · Registered Office

Registered Office of Company change your registered office address with full ROC compliance.

Every company must maintain a registered office — a physical address for all official correspondence. Changing the registered office is a reportable event under the Companies Act, 2013 — and the process varies depending on whether the change is within the same city, within the same state, or to a different state.

A same-city change requires only a Board Resolution and INC-22 filing within 15 days. A within-state change (different city or ROC jurisdiction) requires a Special Resolution and newspaper notice. An inter-state change requires NCLT confirmation and amendment of the MOA State Clause — a more involved process.

At Beyonte Compliances, we manage all three types of registered office changes — board and shareholder resolutions, newspaper notices, INC-22 on MCA21, NCLT petitions for inter-state changes, MOA amendments, and post-change regulatory updates.
