A business will choose to engage in all business-related activities in the
jurisdiction in which it has been registered. The registered office of a company
can be its corporate headquarters, a manufacturing facility, a branch, or an
administrative building. The registered office in India (the country of
incorporation) will serve as the company's domicile. The state or region where
the company's registered office is situated chooses the ROC (Registrar of
Companies). Any change of address at a company's registered office must be
reported to the ROC within 15 days to be effective.
Different Types of Address Change in Registered Office
A company may decide to move its headquarters after a while; in that case, the
registered office must be changed with notice. The MCA has established
procedures, which must be followed by the company, for altering a company's
address.
- The procedures involved in moving an office from one state to another.
- A board meeting must be conducted, and an extraordinary general meeting resolution must be passed.
- A special resolution will be approved by the EGM that will update both the registered office address and the MOA. The MGT14 resolution must be delivered to the MCA within 30 days.
- The company must publish an ad for the office move no later than 30 days prior to the date of application to the regional director. It should be published in an English newspaper as well as one in the local tongue and a nearby location.
- If the company has any creditors or debenture holders, it should notify them as well as any other regulatory authorities that apply to them.
- To alter the registration office, submit an application to the regional director together with the necessary paperwork.
