MCA Form STK-2: Application by Company to ROC for Removing its Name from Register of Companies (ROC). Sections and Provisions Under Section 248(2) of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 4(1) of the Companies (Removal of Names of Companies from the Register of Companies) Rules, 2016. Section 248 (1) Where the Registrar has reasonable cause to believe that— (a) a company has failed to commence its business within one year of its incorporation 1[or]. (b) 2[***] (c) a company is not carrying on any business or operation for a period of two immediately preceding financial years and has not made any application within such period for obtaining the status of a dormant company under 3[section 455; or] 4[(d) the subscribers to the memorandum have not paid the subscription which they had undertaken to pay at the time of incorporation of a company and a declaration to this effect has not been filed within one hundred and eighty days of its incorporation under sub-section (1) of section 10A; or (e) the company is not carrying on any business or operations, as revealed after the physical verification carried out under sub-section (9) of section 12.] He shall send a notice to the company and all the directors of the company, of his intention to remove the name of the company from the register of companies and request them to send their representations along with copies of the relevant documents, if any, within a period of thirty days from the date of the notice. Purpose STK-2 webform makes closing a company easier. It's for applying to C-PACE to remove a company's name from the register. The company can apply only after paying off all debts. They need either a special Resolution or consent from 75% of shareholders. Key Information: The Form is available on the MCA version 3. STK-2 webform shall be processed in non-STP mode. Documents Required: STK-3 Indemnity Bond, executed by both directors of the company, is recorded on a single Rs. 200 stamp paper, accompanied by the signatures of two witnesses, and duly notarized. STK-4affidavit, individually executed by both directors, is documented on separate Rs.20 stamp papers accompanied by the signatures of two witnesses, and duly notarized. STK-8 statement of Account to be signed by the directors and to be also signed by the auditors of the company along with UDIN. List of shareholders List of directors List of creditors Consent of shareholders Board resolutions. CA Certificate Additional drafts based on various resubmissions. Affidavit Cum Declaration (by both the Directors regarding no debt due, no pending litigation) Declaration by Directors that the company is not associated with any other bank and closure of bank has been done. Waiver letter/ Payment Receipt/ NOC in case there is a liability in the last financials filed with MCA. Timeline Form STK-2 does not prescribe a specific timeline for submission; however, it is to ensure that the Statement of Account does not exceed 30 days between the date of filing Form STK-2 and the date of issuance of the Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN) generated for the Statement of Account. Fees The fee for the Application by the company to ROC to remove its name from the Register of Companies is Rs. 10000/- Key Considerations It is imperative to check the last filing Annual documents of the company to ascertain any liabilities as the MCA frequently sends the Resubmissions regarding the discharge of liabilities in the form of payment proof or waiver letter so it will be better to prepare the same beforehand.
