The primary objective of this form is to bring up Indian business houses which have defaulted on filing various government forms or have violated some other norm\/regulation under the Companies Act 2013 or Income Tax Act 1961 etc., This helps Indian government agencies check actions taken against defaulters and take necessary action against them as well as keep track of all registered companies India.<\/p>\n<p>Form INC \u2013 22A is a compulsory requirement for Indian companies which means Indian company needs to file this form every year otherwise their business license will be revoked.<\/p>\n<p>All Indian companies which are registered under Indian laws and have Indian addresses can file E-Form INC \u2013 22A. Since the introduction of INC \u2013 22A, the Indian government has relaxed the rules and made it mandatory only if Indian company has defaulted with filing any other forms like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.legalraasta.com\/income-tax-return\/\">Income Tax Return<\/a><\/strong>, ESIC, etc.,<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"E-Form_INC_%E2%80%93_22A\"><\/span><strong>E-Form INC &#8211; 22A <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The use of the word &#8216;E&#8217; in E- FORM stands for the electronic filing process. It also helps the Indian government create an online database of all Indian companies under India. This step helps the Indian Government analyze various trends which emerge from such data collections. The data collected by the Indian Government can help them determine Indian companies who default on Indian tax forms, Indian companies violating Indian business policies, and Indian companies doing any illegal activities in India. Indian Government can easily access Indian company&#8217;s data and take necessary action against them.<\/p>\n<p>INC \u2013 22A was introduced by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) as of their efforts toward regulatory reforms which Indian civil services were undertaking. Indian Government had already laid out rules regarding Indian companies that want to expand their business into Indian states other than Indian state of incorporation or Indian state where Indian company&#8217;s head office is located. INC \u2013 22A forms are required to be filed by Indian companies for changing Indian corporate details including Indian registered office address, change in director\/partner details, change in name, etc.,<\/p>\n<p>Indian corporates and Indian companies should be aware of the new E- Form INC \u2013 22A. Introduced by MCA, this form has been introduced to address validation for all registered Indian companies under the Indian Companies Act, 2013. This form is required to be filed with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) on or before April 1st, 2019. Filing this form will not only simplify the process but also help in transparency as well as accountability at various levels within Indian businesses that are organized into company format. Any Indian corporate or Indian company that does not file this form shall stand disqualified from accessing services provided by Central Government Departments like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legalraasta.com\/gst-return\">Goods and Services Tax<\/a> Network (GSTN), National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL), etcetera until this form has been filed. Indian companies and Indian corporates should definitely file this E- Form INC \u2013 22A and revalidate their Indian corporate identity online to be in compliance with Indian laws and regulations, which shall facilitate Indian businesses when it comes to accessing services that are primarily available for Indian citizens or Indian entities only.<\/p>\n<p>This form along with other things like Company Incorporation Form (INC &#8211; 15) can be obtained from MCA&#8217;s website by visiting Corporate Affairs. The said link provides access to all forms related to Indian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legalraasta.com\/company-registration\">company registration<\/a>\/incorporation under the Companies Act 2013.
