MCA’s own page also shows whether a company incorporated by 2017 has filed form INC-22A (ACTIVE). Until it does, changes to its capital, directors or office are not recorded.
Then we tell you what the status means, close the company through a strike-off if the business has stopped, or bring its annual filings up to date.
Closing a company, step by stepFrom your enquiry to the strike-off
The company, its status and what you want to do.
Its filings, liabilities and the notices on MCA.
Any overdue returns, then the strike-off application.
The Registrar publishes a notice and then removes the company.
Type its name or CIN above. "Active" means it is on the register and can file; also check the dates of its last annual return and balance sheet.
The Registrar has removed the company, usually for not doing business or not filing. It cannot trade, and an identical name stays barred for 20 years.
Yes. The company, a member, a creditor or a workman can apply to the National Company Law Tribunal within 20 years of the strike-off notice, and anyone aggrieved by the Registrar’s order can appeal within 3 years.
It cannot trade or sign contracts, but its directors stay liable as if it had not been dissolved (section 248(7)), and as a creditor you can apply to restore it within 20 years. Ask us before you write the money off.
MCA’s own figures show 901,936 of 3,192,605 registered companies struck off (October 2026). Type a name above to check one company.
Removal has started. The company can stop it by replying within 30 days with its overdue filings or proof of business, and creditors can object.
The Tribunal dissolved the company after insolvency proceedings under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. "Section 59(8)" means the company wound itself up voluntarily.
Deal only with its resolution professional, who runs the company during insolvency, and ask us before you sign.
The company has asked to be removed after paying off its debts. A public notice invites objections within 30 days.
A company with no business and no liabilities can apply to be struck off. One with assets or creditors to settle is wound up. We handle both.
Their status reads "Strike Off". MCA also publishes each Registrar’s strike-off notices on mca.gov.in.
MCA’s master data lists the directors. The shareholders are in its annual return, form MGT-7, sold on MCA’s View Public Documents service.
Send the company’s name or CIN and the decision you face, such as a payment, a contract or a restoration.
