Registered Office Address change

Overview

The registered office of a company is a place where all the communication related to business is held. In addition to a registered office, a company can also have a corporate office, branch, factory, or administrative office. However, the registered office of a company in India must be registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) and any change must be intimated to the ROC within statutory timelines.

Why is the registered office address important?

While incorporating a Company it is important to declare the registered office of the Company and to submit the relevant documents. Here is the list of key documents that are typically required:

  • Electricity Bill / Water Bill / Property Tax Receipt or any other utility bill
  • NOC from the Landlord if the place is rented

The name and address on these documents should match the NOC certificate by the landlord and/or the rental agreement. The registered office can be a residential property unless restricted by local regulations.
