The annual report and audited financial statements that a company has to submit to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs on time or before the deadlines are referred to as "ROC filings." A company will be charged with a prescribed fine if it fails to file annual returns as specified by the Companies Act, 2013.

Both are submitted to the MCA within the allotted time frames of 30 days for AOC-4 and 60 days for MGT-7 following the Annual General Meeting (AGM).
